Welcome And The Storyteller Hat

SPEAKER_02 0:01

You laugh, you cringe, you beg for more with a guilty pleasure you can ignore like a drunk exent at 2 a.m. We slipped it in again.

SPEAKER_03 0:18

Welcome, welcome, welcome, everyone. We are back slipping it in with you. I'm Megan, and I'm here with JJ and the storyteller. Oh, God. I know. Love the hat.

SPEAKER_00 0:32

She got it from here. You do love it. I do love it. And you love the title.

SPEAKER_03 0:36

I honestly almost didn't get it, but I knew you would love it. So I felt like I had to.

SPEAKER_01 0:41

I do love it. It's it's a great birthday.

SPEAKER_00 0:44

Is this from the Craig uh line?

SPEAKER_03 0:46

Yep, Craig Conover from Southern Charm. He has a store sewing down south and a line of pillows and things that are sold and Krogers and Home Depots, I don't know, all over the place. Anyway.

SPEAKER_01 0:59

Is this a Kroger hat?

SPEAKER_03 1:01

No. It was a special hat made specifically for BravoCon that is now sold out.

SPEAKER_00 1:07

Southern Charm.

SPEAKER_03 1:08

Southern Charm, my favorite reality show.

SPEAKER_00 1:10

Right.

SPEAKER_03 1:11

So Craig also, like you, Maddie, considers himself a storyteller. And so he created this.

SPEAKER_00 1:18

It will yet to be proven.

SPEAKER_03 1:19

Craig. I supported Craig and was Matt. We are feeling like Shep and Whitney and Madison right now. It's weird to me. Because we know how they feel with Craig.

SPEAKER_01 1:32

Yeah. It's weird to me that you guys just don't subscribe to my storytelling.

SPEAKER_03 1:37

Well, no, I I consider myself also a storyteller, as does JJ. Well, then you guys can't.

SPEAKER_00 1:43

I don't consider myself.

SPEAKER_02 1:45

Oh.

SPEAKER_00 1:46

I mean, I wouldn't put myself that title, like give myself that title. I just don't.

SPEAKER_03 1:51

I don't, yeah. I don't really subscribe and giving myself titles either.

SPEAKER_00 1:54

But now you just have the label.

SPEAKER_03 1:56

Yes. So we've got our storyteller with us today.

NYC Trip And Birthday Energy

SPEAKER_03 2:00

And the storyteller and JJ, you guys are fresh off the boat. Oh, yeah. So to speak, from New York City. Yeah, we're one of my favorite cities.

SPEAKER_01 2:09

We did. We had uh speaking of birthdays, that's really the my it was like my birthday weekend. I love it.

SPEAKER_00 2:15

So we were there, what, 25? Yeah.

SPEAKER_01 2:18

See?

SPEAKER_03 2:19

And I'm younger. There's a story. 24. I'm 24. A few more days.

SPEAKER_01 2:25

So Wednesday, Thursday, Friday, came back Saturday.

SPEAKER_00 2:29

Yeah, and it was we didn't plan. I mean, we planned it before the next one.

SPEAKER_03 2:35

Right.

SPEAKER_00 2:36

So we were in the middle of the parade.

SPEAKER_03 2:38

Oh, yes.

SPEAKER_00 2:39

Um, which was amazing. I mean, it was amazing for the city of New York. But it's cool. And for me, it was my first time. I mean, it kind of tag along with Maddie's birthday weekend celebration. And it was my first time in New York in the summer.

SPEAKER_01 2:53

And uh it's amazing in the summer.

SPEAKER_00 2:56

The weather was just perfect.

SPEAKER_01 2:57

You did have great weather.

SPEAKER_00 2:59

Yeah. Matt, Maddie uh double booked us for us a couple Broadway stores.

SPEAKER_03 3:03

I'm dying to hear what happened because you were leaving and you said, Oh, we're doing two matinee, and we're doing one one day, one the next. And the next thing I know, I see a text that's like, oh, I just opened up my tickets and I booked two shows for the same time on the same day. Yeah. So what happened?

SPEAKER_01 3:23

That's correct.

SPEAKER_03 3:24

Did you have to buy all new tickets?

SPEAKER_01 3:26

Uh yeah.

SPEAKER_03 3:27

And they let you sell those?

SPEAKER_00 3:29

Well, we went from the orchestra to the nose bleeds.

SPEAKER_03 3:32

Oh, well, that's even worse.

SPEAKER_01 3:35

Well, if you want the story to tell her, to tell you the story.

SPEAKER_03 3:38

Well, this is where sometimes I think JJ's a storyteller as well.

SPEAKER_00 3:42

Well, he just gives some facts of what happened and what didn't.

SPEAKER_03 3:46

And those are the key facts.

Double-Booked Broadway Tickets Panic

SPEAKER_01 3:48

Tuesday night is when I was starting to look at all of the my saved emails, like where I'm parking, the flight, the tickets, the hotel stuff, just getting out, and I'm like, holy shit. I've got two Thursday matinee shows for one for Titanic and one for O'Mary.

SPEAKER_00 4:07

Which O'Mary was the one that we were mainly looking forward to. Like that's that was our first show right now. With Maya Rudolph, which we're very big fans. Right.

SPEAKER_01 4:18

In fact, that's why we picked the time we did, because it was during her run on the show.

SPEAKER_00 4:23

Yeah. And I think that we booked uh Titanic after the Tonies, even because they were just nominated for Best Musical. And and Matty and I we were back and forth. After the nominations, yeah. After the nominations, and Matt Maddie and I were like, we need another show, let's just wait for the nominations. And smart picked.

SPEAKER_01 4:46

And I found really great seats for a good price. Because it's I got like, you know how at some point one row is one price, and the next row behind it. It's like changes to a lower price if it's behind it. And I'm like, oh, this is great because we're we're that row. We're that, you know, so we have gray seats. And then so it was nine o'clock-ish on Tuesday night. And so I immediately start to try to fix things. And of course, the box office or the people are only open till eight. So I'm like, fuck, I've got to deal with this the next morning. And of course, what I did find was all sales are final, blah, blah, blah. So then I get on. Oh, so then the next morning they open at 10 a.m.

SPEAKER_00 5:31

Our flight was at 10.

SPEAKER_01 5:33

At 10.05 was our flight. So I'm like, F again. I cannot handle this until we land. Because the stress of it was mounting. And so I talked to them, I told them what I did. And ultimately they had to take my name and number and call me back, which I was very leery of because you know how that works. Yeah. They say they're gonna call. I'm like, I'm like, are you really gonna call? I asked.

SPEAKER_03 5:57

Well, and plus you need to like get moving for a new like you need to move forward. You can't wait around.

SPEAKER_00 6:03

But also like to bring in like silver lining here and not to have like put like a damper on like our trip. Like the good thing about it is like Maddie got the tickets directly through Broadway.com, both of them in the same card. So it was, it's yeah, you know what? I mean, I I get a good deal from like other places and things like that, but in situations like this, yes, that's what you really wanted.

SPEAKER_01 6:27

When they pulled it up, they could see okay, both yeah, this guy with this first and last name does have two sets of tickets with us both for 3 p.m. Anyway, they ended up moving, they wouldn't cancel them, they could only allow me to like we have to call and see if they'll let you come switch to another night. And that's what they had to call back to approve, and they did, but to JJ's point, we went from like those really great seats. Yeah, had to pay I had to pay $45 more, and then and then we were up in the balcony. Oh, that sucks. There's really not a bad seat, in my opinion.

SPEAKER_00 7:05

The theater is like small, so it was good. But we started with uh O'Mary, which it was just mind-blowing.

O'Mary And Titanic Comedy Highlights

SPEAKER_00 7:15

Like we were laughing. We I was just in a little chuckle here and there.

SPEAKER_01 7:20

I could feel his shoulders. I love that. Yeah, I could feel his shoulders. It was so funny. The only unfunny part was like three-quarters of the way through the the show, all of a sudden, two rows up from us. This lady pops out of her seat and barrel barrels out this emergency exit. Oh my god, yes. Wow. And down a flight of stairs. Yes. Oh my god.

SPEAKER_03 7:45

Like you heard it, her falling.

SPEAKER_01 7:48

People got up and were like, I'm like, are they gonna stop the show?

SPEAKER_00 7:51

I thought I thought that they were gonna stop the I thought that they were gonna stop the baby.

SPEAKER_03 7:55

It's not affecting the audience or the day.

SPEAKER_01 7:58

She wasn't uh slightly older lady.

SPEAKER_03 8:01

But wasn't she in you you said she went to accident it?

SPEAKER_00 8:05

No, but she accidentally like she wasn't in the theater in the theater, inside the city.

SPEAKER_01 8:11

Well, the door was open and people were like, Can we get some help over here? And the light was open because the door was open and it was letting in light.

SPEAKER_03 8:18

Well, what didn't the usher see that and immediately go help?

SPEAKER_01 8:21

No, somebody had to go get an usher, and then the usher came over. It was an so I didn't know what show to watch.

SPEAKER_03 8:27

Yeah.

SPEAKER_01 8:28

But um, otherwise, yeah, it was a great show.

SPEAKER_00 8:31

Yeah. Between O Mary, which was our main show that we wanted to, and um Titanic or Titanic, people didn't know. Titanic. Titanic. Um, which one do you think do you like the both the best?

SPEAKER_01 8:44

I know I don't know if I can't answer that, I don't think, because and I can't when somebody asks me in general, like what are your top Broadway shows or which one do you like better? Like for me, I usually it's it's probably my most favorite thing to do. Like if I'm filling out a profile and someone were to say what's your favorite hobbies, I would probably list that at this stage of my life as my top. And every show is so unique and different, it's hard to compare the two. Yeah, I mean, I laughed equally in both. I had more with Titanic, there's so many cultural references that you're just like, oh my god, that is you know, like you can relate to it. Whereas oh Mary was you know, like the historical you know, Abe Lincoln's wife, Mary, um, parody or reimagined. And so you you didn't have the pop culture references, but the but Maya just she's her alone, she's just incredible.

SPEAKER_00 9:42

I do have to say that between both shows, like I have to say, like Titanic or Titanic was one of those shows that is like the most ridiculous, yet like so good. Like the again to Maddie's point, like the pop reference. I mean, the iceberg was Tina Turner singing Mountain High. Yeah.

SPEAKER_01 10:05

Oh, like the role of the iceberg.

SPEAKER_00 10:07

The roll of the iceberg for Titanic was like Tina Turner.

SPEAKER_01 10:12

So she came in like a weird thing, yeah.

SPEAKER_03 10:15

But and then you would just like it's a parody, like uh like the whole like you would have like it was really Tina's voice.

SPEAKER_00 10:24

No, no, no, no.

SPEAKER_03 10:26

Oh, okay.

SPEAKER_01 10:26

Like literally, they're like and playing the role of iceberg tonight is Tina Turner, and it was like a person made up like Tina Turner. Oh, dressed up like it. Sang like Tina Turner did her move, dance moves, yeah.

SPEAKER_00 10:41

But it was just like ridiculous in the sense of like there is Jack and Rose declaring their love, and all of a sudden Celine Dion is peeking through the window, singing all by myself.

SPEAKER_01 10:52

Yeah, just yeah, inserting herself into all the scenes. So it was really good. And after the show, we did the what do they call it? The Broadway door or the Oh yeah. And so they all came out except for that who that one guy from Big Bang Theory.

SPEAKER_00 11:09

Oh, Jim Parson.

SPEAKER_01 11:10

He was also he was hilarious.

SPEAKER_00 11:12

He was so he was Rose's mom.

SPEAKER_01 11:14

He played Rose's mom. Wow. So funny, but uh, he didn't come out, but everyone else did, including Frankie Grande. You get out of selfie with it.

SPEAKER_00 11:23

Yeah, so you'll like he had a little um snap elderly moment.

SPEAKER_01 11:28

I'm well, I'm just never been good with taking selfies. I never know or technical. I never know what which of the buttons to use. It's the same button. I know.

SPEAKER_03 11:37

It's the same button you take a photo with.

SPEAKER_01 11:39

No, no, no, on the side. You have like one of your side buttons. One of the volumes of the volumes. It was most people don't. They use the one on the side.

SPEAKER_03 11:49

I do a thumb over and do it. You still have a 12.

SPEAKER_01 11:54

She may not even have this.

SPEAKER_03 11:55

Just wait till iPhone Cold comes out.

SPEAKER_01 11:58

So anyway, I put the phone up to take a picture of Frankie and me, and I go, Oh, I'm really bad at this. And and I hit the wrong button and my phone shuts off. He goes, Wow, you are bad at this. And then I he was patient. I got it back on, I took it, and he's like, There you go, and gave me a high five. And so that was that was fun.

SPEAKER_03 12:18

Were you sensing like any sexual energy with him?

SPEAKER_01 12:22

Um, no.

SPEAKER_03 12:24

Oh, no.

SPEAKER_01 12:24

I don't know. He wouldn't, he's not really my type.

SPEAKER_03 12:27

Well, okay, but I didn't know Twinkie.

SPEAKER_00 12:29

He's a Twinkie. Yeah. Oh yeah.

SPEAKER_01 12:32

I mean, he was very cordial and nice. I thought he was like he spent a lot, he spent the most time out there uh of any of the performers. So that was good.

SPEAKER_00 12:41

Yeah, it was great. It was a it was such a great show, and we just got back from New York straight to see Fortune theme set and one of your favorites, Zach Noe Towers. He was opening for her, and he was like so good. I love it. So good.

SPEAKER_01 12:55

Yeah. Um, I have to I do have to tell a funny story. Well, two things. One, you better believe I was avoiding potholes the entire time around walking around. You mean manholes? Yeah. Correct, manholes.

SPEAKER_00 13:09

Oh, I know.

SPEAKER_03 13:11

You're like potholes. I was like, what does that mean?

SPEAKER_00 13:13

Oh, we were we in Michigan.

SPEAKER_03 13:15

He's going back to those women that fell in the room.

SPEAKER_01 13:18

You better believe avoiding those. And but the other funny thing is so the first night we go out and we were doing um Greenwich Village, and we went to Stonewall, like we said we were doing it. We had a great night. We kept moving around, moving around, and then when it's time to go back to our hotel, Juan.

Lost Hotel And NYC Favorites

SPEAKER_01 13:40

No nuggets. No nuggets. No nuggets. Oh JJ was a surprise. JJ was in charge of the Uber. So he gets the Uber, and I'm literally like just I'm I'm it was such a long day because it was our flight day and what so much walking around and the whole thing. So I'm not really paying much attention. Then we get to the hotel, which is Spring Hill Marriott Hotel. That's what, but I'm like, I don't, DJ, I don't think this is our hotel. He's like, yes, it is. He we get out of the car and I'm like, okay. I'm like, I don't think so. And he's yeah, yes, it is. We get he we go through the lobby, and I'm like, clearly this isn't our car.

SPEAKER_03 14:18

Yeah, but I'm like, Was it a Spring Hill suite? It was, yeah, because there's several in Manhattan.

SPEAKER_00 14:22

There, yeah, we learned that.

SPEAKER_01 14:24

So we get out he wouldn't, he wouldn't agree to the fact that it wasn't our hotel until we got on the elevator and there's no option for floor 14. And I'm like, I told you this is not our hotel.

SPEAKER_00 14:35

But it was, it's yeah, it even when you go to the app, there is one on 36th Street, and there's also another one on 37th Street. So I got confused. Yeah.

SPEAKER_01 14:46

Okay. What was your favorite thing, JJ, about the trip?

SPEAKER_00 14:50

I think Central Park was Central Park in the summer, Megan. I don't know if you've been in Central Park during the summer. It was it was a highlight for me. Like the walk around it, like this seeing people like laying. It was so interesting to see like people laying. Maybe the UV was at seven or eight. They were getting the timelines, they were getting the timelines laying on that central park, and like vendors and performers and all that. And it was just a nice contrast to see a park that big in the middle of this like concrete jungle. Like it was I I really enjoy that.

SPEAKER_01 15:29

Look at you with a concrete jungle drop.

SPEAKER_00 15:33

Well, how what was your favorite?

SPEAKER_01 15:35

I actually liked discovering Hell's Kitchen.

SPEAKER_00 15:38

Oh, yeah.

SPEAKER_01 15:39

I had I hadn't really spent time in there. I think I had been there before, uh, but we discovered it. Uh I don't know. We were over in that area for uh a particular restaurant that we went to, and then we're like, well, let's just walk around.

SPEAKER_00 15:53

I just found it really, I mean, it was not as that one I got like the best um spezzo martini, that area.

SPEAKER_01 16:02

No. Well, this was at that pizza place that was at the where we like.

SPEAKER_00 16:06

That's it, yeah. Yeah, Don Antonio's.

SPEAKER_01 16:08

Yeah, they were like one of the top 50 pizza places in the country.

SPEAKER_00 16:12

Like you're I told Maddie as soon as I we sat down, and I when I ordered, Megan, when I ordered my Spezzomartini, they started doing pressing this press right there.

SPEAKER_03 16:21

Oh, I love it.

SPEAKER_00 16:22

You know, that's a sign.

SPEAKER_03 16:23

Yeah, that sounds like a dream espresso martini.

SPEAKER_01 16:26

I didn't get one, but I tasted it. It was his and it was good. So anyway, we we made our way around. It's it had a sense of charm, it was a diverse area, it was a lot of um gays, friendly gays, sporty gays. Uh yeah, all the gays. All the gays.

SPEAKER_00 16:44

Yeah, I think that if we go back, I think that probably we just I would personally stay in that area. Yeah.

SPEAKER_01 16:50

We also stumbled upon the filming of Ellie.

SPEAKER_00 16:53

Ellie, yeah, it's a new show.

SPEAKER_03 16:55

The new uh the Elwood show.

SPEAKER_00 16:58

Ellie. It's called Ellie.

SPEAKER_03 17:00

Oh, okay. So it's not the legally blonde. No. Okay.

SPEAKER_01 17:03

I don't know what the show really is. I never did figure it out, but they were telling us they were in the middle of it. It was like they started at 6 a.m. And we were walking through the filming of it.

SPEAKER_00 17:12

Yeah, and Maddie uh took me to like the area of like the Rockefeller Pla Plaza, the Today Show. Um, we had a great drink right there on that. I love that drink. It's so interesting because yes, and you usually are not like a fruity drink type of person. Well, it had ginger beer in it, which I like.

SPEAKER_01 17:29

And so I took I actually took a picture of the recipe things in. But I'm like, eh, anytime there's like five ingredients for a drink, I'm like, that's a you know, yeah.

SPEAKER_03 17:38

So was it a glorified mule or no? Kind of, yeah.

SPEAKER_00 17:43

I would say like a pink mule.

SPEAKER_01 17:45

I I have a picture I could look at. But maybe I'll do that.

SPEAKER_00 17:48

We had a great like drink there, and it was it was just like it's it's a different vibe on like New York during the summer. Yeah, like we just saw like the the area, like I said, like the today show and everything. It was like so it was so much fun.

SPEAKER_03 18:01

Yeah, no, I love

The Nancy Guthrie Ransom Notes

SPEAKER_03 18:02

it. Well, talking about the today show, I don't know if you guys have seen that like the Nancy Guthrie investigation has taken a big turn.

SPEAKER_00 18:10

It's so sad, yeah.

SPEAKER_03 18:12

Yeah, it is really sad. But like this new note that TMZ got, have you heard about it or read about it?

SPEAKER_01 18:20

I I don't know all the details, but I have heard that there's been a new note.

SPEAKER_03 18:24

Yeah, so ready for your fence. Again, the note goes to TMZ. And TMZ has verified that it's coming from the same place as the other two notes came from that they previously received that the police or FBI have already kind of said they think could be viable notes coming from the kidnapper. Um so the person is basically it's almost like this person is feeling like people should be listening to him more or her more because they're like kind of made a comment about how, oh, the FBI thinks that it's a I'm a woman because they got this phone call. Like, I'm not the woman that called in to the FBI saying, I don't know, somebody re some woman had recently called in talking about a burial site or something. They're like, it's not me. And so this person is saying they have a phone stashed in a secure location containing a short video of Nancy on what was probably her last day alongside her primary abductor. And it says that there were two kidnappers involved and that the hidden phone contains their names, ages, photographs, and addresses. And the sender is again, this is they claim they asked for this before. They want one Bitcoin, which is currently valued around $60,000 in exchange for the phone's password and location. And they previously said we'll give her the location of the body for one Bitcoin.

SPEAKER_00 20:01

One Bitcoin is worth sixty thousand dollars.

SPEAKER_03 20:04

Right now, that's the current value. Yeah, it goes up and down, but it's been around that for a while.

SPEAKER_01 20:09

I don't it seems like you would ask. I mean, if you're this type of person, which obviously is despicable, but if you're this type of person, I would ask for more than one. I mean, because you you're I think what you can grow that bitcoin, right? Yeah, but but you're the risk of it, you're not this isn't illegal. You'd be if they catch this person, I feel like they've broken crumb broken the law.

SPEAKER_03 20:32

Here's the thing currently the reward for information about that like seeks to finding Nancy or her kidnappers is at 1.2 million. So if I just more than yeah, so if I had this information, I would be contacting the FBI. I have viable information, I will give it to you, but I want immunity and I want the reward. And I'm gonna give it handing, yeah, handing you this information on a platter. So it makes me question maybe this is not a so-called innocent bystander sending these notes, but this maybe is really one of the kidnappers, or they were a third kidnapper and want to sell out their other two because they've got a lot of people.

SPEAKER_01 21:14

If you do that, the other two will automatically implicate you.

SPEAKER_03 21:18

Yeah, but that's why you want to make the deal with the FBI to get a meeting.

SPEAKER_01 21:23

You're saying that, and that is a good idea. That's what I would do. Yeah, that's a deal.

SPEAKER_03 21:28

They maybe should be consulting in a lawyer.

SPEAKER_01 21:30

I don't, yeah, I don't think they're making the right moves, and it's it's really sad.

SPEAKER_03 21:33

It is sad, but you know, I do think, like I was thinking about it, I'm like, going to TMZ with this information is kind of a really good route to go because Harvey Levin, who owns and runs TMZ, is a lawyer. They seem to handle everything appropriately, they immediately get it to the FBI and they get it out to everyone. So I'm like, if I was ever somehow got caught up in some criminal enterprise and I need to get in. Info out. I think I'm gonna go to TMZ.

SPEAKER_01 22:02

Criminal criminal enterprise best practice.

SPEAKER_03 22:06

Well, I mean, I just before it used to be like you'd send letters to like the papers or like NBC, ABC. No, now it's TMZ.

SPEAKER_00 22:14

Just go to TMZ.

SPEAKER_03 22:16

I feel like they're gonna talk about you. It gets everyone reports it, and then I feel like you kind of get this like they seem to have a yin and yang TMZ and this crazy person signing in the letters.

SPEAKER_00 22:28

Yeah, it's it's also sad.

SPEAKER_01 22:30

I was I know it is. I was watching the Today Show last week, and this has been a developing story. So they um they they did the it was an interesting thing, and I always I was curious to see how they would handle it because it's a national uh storyline. It is but then it's the today show, and they're a news broadcast, but uh it's Savannah. So they covered the story, she didn't obviously have any coverage of it, and then the when they came when they concluded the story, it was she was on the couch with all of them, and she's she's like, Yeah, this is the hardest. Yeah, she's like, I cry every day. I can all into work and I cry every day from work to home. Yeah, she's like, but while I'm here, it's you know, it brings me joy and both of basically we're saying both of those things can be true.

SPEAKER_00 23:22

It makes me wonder that once this is all that's a valid point. Like it won't make me wonder like once this is all resolved, uh hopefully soon. This is one of those um documentaries that we'll see in Netflix.

SPEAKER_03 23:35

Well, hopefully we find out I mean that's the thing. Hopefully we find out the truth. So hopefully this is not just some joker and they're they really have real information because then I think we'll eventually get to it. It's almost like they're upset that they aren't getting some notariety. Yeah, the fact that they're upset that everyone started, oh, this woman called into the FBI about where she's buried, and they have to comment out. Like they obviously were up upset about that.

SPEAKER_01 24:03

I've watched several of programs. Oh, well, there you go. And I will say the true crime programs, yes. I will say this to the point you're making about the the person potentially getting upset because the people they know what they're doing. Yeah, I mean, even they're probably like, we know they probably, I'm thinking, surmising, the FBI is like, we know this is a man, this isn't a woman. Yeah, but if we hint at the fact that we think it's a woman, that will ding ding ding. I agree. That will get the person upset, yeah, which then they might trip up or they're gonna say something more, they're gonna come out and say that's not me. And like anytime they initiate any type of communication, there's an opportunity to trace that digital connection and all that stuff. So I mean, I agree, yeah, I agree.

SPEAKER_03 24:51

It's all which is why I think they're going the Bitcoin route because you can hide who you are, you can hide who owns it, it goes through all these layers. So I think they're thinking I can turn this information over, but I can also get paid, and no one ever has to know. So they're trying to still keep themselves secret, which again makes me wonder isn't this maybe part of the original kidnappers? Because they did this maybe to get money and then shit hit the fan a day or two in and she died.

unknown 25:22

Yeah, yeah.

SPEAKER_03 25:23

Which is supposedly what happened. Supposedly, based on the second note, they've recently reported that they said she was alive, but she's dead now. And that was when Savannah and her family went on air and said we'll pay, we understand. Like that they were message. Yeah, we so and they just at that point they didn't pay because they basically knew she was dead.

SPEAKER_01 25:47

But they also well, they said they would pay and they want I think they wanted to bring her home. Yeah, and they thought at this point at when we were watching it unfold, I think, at least from my perspective, it was it they were trying to get her back alive, but turns out they knew, I think, that that she wasn't, but they still needed yeah that you know the closure of it all. So anyway. Um chilling. It is, it's it's it's yeah, it's so uh and that's probably tacky of me to use chilling as a segue. Oh, you gotta say I'm gonna that's right. I was like thinking, oh my god, I am.

SPEAKER_00 26:32

Oh my chilling. Well, that makes sense.

The Shark Fan Obsession Debate

SPEAKER_01 26:35

It's a chill pill, it's called the chill pill. It is called this, so this is my obsession product. It is the shark. So you know the ninja shark? I think they started with what vacuums? Yes. Well, they have a fan. And if you know me, you know I'm a fan of fans. Yep.

SPEAKER_00 26:54

You started a Facebook group.

SPEAKER_01 26:55

I sure did. And you know all about it. This fan is a uh well, people can't see it. So what it what would you say? It's the size of like a playing card as far as the width of it and stuff. It's bulkier, but and you have it on. I have it on. Listen, listen how powerful it gets.

SPEAKER_00 27:16

Yeah, wow.

SPEAKER_03 27:17

Oh, I feel I'm feeling it. Yeah, I get a little feel, yeah.

SPEAKER_00 27:20

It keeps you up at night.

SPEAKER_03 27:22

Oh, it's loud. Oh, he used it in New York.

SPEAKER_00 27:25

He sure did.

SPEAKER_03 27:26

And well, yeah. I feel like it's not that like it's more like that white noise that bothers me.

SPEAKER_00 27:31

I don't like white noise.

SPEAKER_03 27:32

Oh. Oh wow, wow, JJ just lost the camera.

SPEAKER_01 27:40

Wow, dude. Sorry about that. You guys, wow, I saw it in slow motion.

SPEAKER_03 27:45

It's still your legs.

SPEAKER_01 27:47

Wow, we got a hot mess on this podcast.

SPEAKER_03 27:51

Very much so.

SPEAKER_01 27:52

There you go. Authenticity. Yeah, live show.

SPEAKER_03 27:55

Live show shit happens.

SPEAKER_01 27:58

Anyway, I can use this fan to clean up this spill he just made. It will blow it right off the table. But um, we used it in New York because it were a couple hot days. So I have this little shoulder strap, it can go right around, it hangs, it's you know, like a little pocket camera size or what have you. It's very powerful. It also has two different attachments. One, I can swap it out and it's a mister. So then I can do it. We were doing that. Oh, wow, that's cool. And then there's another one like this, it's like a silver thing. Oh, I didn't see that. Yeah, I didn't use it, but it cold makes it cold, and you can use it almost like as a cold massager. Like if you had if you had you know sore muscles. Haven't had to use that one yet.

SPEAKER_02 28:43

Maybe better get working out.

SPEAKER_01 28:45

So this was uh so online, it's currently on sale, but for $129.99, it was $149.99.

SPEAKER_03 28:55

Oh, well, that's was it.

SPEAKER_01 28:56

$129.

SPEAKER_00 28:58

That was. Yeah. Uh are you kidding me?

SPEAKER_03 29:02

No, you didn't think it was that expensive.

SPEAKER_00 29:04

I didn't even know.

SPEAKER_03 29:05

Yeah.

SPEAKER_00 29:06

No, I would never pay that.

SPEAKER_01 29:08

No, I love fans.

SPEAKER_00 29:09

I mean, and this is a review great shark, but um I love fans.

SPEAKER_01 29:14

I feel like it's gonna have a lifetime. It's gonna work.

SPEAKER_03 29:17

I thought I was very impressed.

SPEAKER_01 29:19

$129? But JJ, there's a mystery involved. It's very powerful. But look how little it is. Yeah, and you can just strap it on and it also, you know, all the for $129? You join you you enjoyed it. You did, but I didn't know it was $129. Can you put a price on feeling comfortable? I don't know. I don't know. Wow.

SPEAKER_00 29:48

So you're not getting one. I mean, I loved it. I loved every second. I mean, I was even uh O'Mary blowing some.

SPEAKER_01 29:56

Oh, you were using it. Yeah, we were not during the actual show. But when you get in there and you get when we climbed up 16 flights of stairs to get to our balcony is a few steps. Yeah.

SPEAKER_03 30:10

So let me ask you this. Were people looking at you or asking you about it? Did you get any not at all? Oh, no one made it.

SPEAKER_01 30:17

I mean, there was a lot of other things, craziness. It's New York, 100%.

SPEAKER_00 30:22

So this is not gonna well, but still I think that New York, that's the beauty of New York. Like people don't even give a fuck about what's happening with you.

SPEAKER_03 30:30

I might notice that.

SPEAKER_00 30:31

I think I'll get questions about notice that in New York and Michigan or in Japan.

SPEAKER_03 30:36

Yes, yes.

SPEAKER_01 30:37

I think I'll get more questions about it locally, probably. Oh. I'm gonna bring it to work. I can sit on my desk and because you position it like this, and why?

SPEAKER_03 30:47

If I went to someone's desk or office and they're sitting in there with this fan, I'd be like, Why? Is it really well? I for one, in the office, I'm typically freezing from the air conditioning. So, like, the need to even have a fan is like, oh my god, I'm putting on gloves and sweaters, and I want to like wrap myself in a blanket when I'm in the office.

SPEAKER_01 31:09

Well, you know, I'm always warm and I love a fan all the time. Yes. All right. So you got me this hat. Yes.

SPEAKER_03 31:16

And you also got me a hat. I got you a little clip-on fan that I saw on TikTok.

SPEAKER_01 31:20

Not $129. No, no, no, no, no. What would you pay for this, JJ? If you you didn't know, like what if you wanted to get one yourself? What what would you have said? What'd you pay for that, Matt? $30.

SPEAKER_00 31:31

Max $30. That's what I kind of thought you were.

SPEAKER_01 31:33

Really? I thought that's where your heart was based on this reaction.

SPEAKER_00 31:37

I this is, I mean, I I already expressed what my feelings are about this. I'm like, and the it's great. I enjoyed it. I just didn't know the price until today.

SPEAKER_01 31:48

Well, just guess what? This strap is extra. This one and I lost the mister. I left the mister at time. So I had to buy a $30 replacement. So at this point $160. No, two, I'm over $200.

SPEAKER_03 32:06

You just left the Mr.

SPEAKER_01 32:07

sitting around. Well, I was changing the I I went from fan to mister. Yeah. And then I went back to fan, and I think because we were seated on a bench, and I think I set it on the bench.

SPEAKER_00 32:19

He was transitioning.

SPEAKER_01 32:20

We just got up and walked away.

SPEAKER_03 32:22

So I don't think I would have bought this strap. I feel like you could buy a different strap that would be more attractive.

SPEAKER_01 32:29

I got two straps. It came with two. So there's a wrist, I have a wristlet option, so it can dangle from my wrist. Yeah. Or I have this one that I can I would wear it as a cross bag. Like a cross, like the like a cross. Like a yeah.

SPEAKER_03 32:45

I think my issue isn't how you wear it. I don't like it. I feel like it should have been more of a web or a wider strap than like a rope. It looks like you're just wearing a rope around your neck. Yeah.

SPEAKER_01 32:54

Yeah.

SPEAKER_03 32:55

Which I'm not that's my issue.

SPEAKER_01 32:57

That was 30.

unknown 32:58

Yeah.

SPEAKER_03 32:59

For 30. That's like a $5 at most rope. It should not be 30 should be a nice web.

SPEAKER_01 33:07

Oh, you got more. I got a case. That was I haven't got that yet. Wow.

SPEAKER_03 33:11

That's really invested.

SPEAKER_01 33:12

So they're really I would pay. They should package it all together. There should be a bundle with the should have been a bundle.

SPEAKER_03 33:20

And then you could say, I don't want to pay the bundle, but I'm going to buy piece by piece or just buy one thing.

SPEAKER_01 33:25

Yeah.

SPEAKER_03 33:26

I think 130 is a little steep for me personally. I would go like 8090.

SPEAKER_01 33:31

Okay. And you would pay for that. I splurgs.

SPEAKER_03 33:33

But I don't, I want, I wouldn't buy that neck business. And I would want a bundle for that. I don't want to have to piece it up.

SPEAKER_01 33:45

They don't have it.

SPEAKER_03 33:45

So well, I'm speaking to the shark people, hoping they hear and maybe they give us a bundle.

SPEAKER_01 33:51

Yeah.

SPEAKER_03 33:51

Even a promo code. Well, in the meantime, because you've got some fingers.

SPEAKER_01 33:55

In the meantime, help us help our listeners out and put it on the link tree.

SPEAKER_03 33:58

I'll put it on the link tree. Absolutely. If you want to check it out. Well, you know what? This episode is going to drop right before 4th of July. I bet they have a 4th of July deal. So we'll see. And I'll look around. Maybe I can find us a code.

SPEAKER_02 34:13

Yeah.

SPEAKER_03 34:13

I'll put it. Check out the Linktree and have at it.

SPEAKER_00 34:18

Okay. Well, with that, we could have some slipping ins and blogs.

Uber Shuttle Hack Versus SuperShuttle

SPEAKER_00 34:23

Absolutely. And since we're talking about New York and our trips and all the things, I'm going to start with my slipping in. My slipping in is something that we discovered as we landed in New York. I didn't know that this was happening. Uh within the Uber app. You actually are able to access Uber shuttle. Um, and it went from a $110 Uber ride from the airport to the hotel to just $20 a piece. And it was so easy. Easy. Easy piece. It was easy piece. You picked exactly what your hotel was. They have a route specifically for that. We had a little walk. Um, but even on top of that, I think it was just perfect.

SPEAKER_03 35:05

A walk from where Uber dropped you off.

SPEAKER_00 35:07

Yeah, so they drop you off. They don't drop you off at the hotel.

SPEAKER_01 35:10

Oh, they don't?

SPEAKER_00 35:11

No, they don't.

SPEAKER_01 35:12

Well, they drop you off in the neighborhood. Yeah. Like we got dropped off in Chelsea, and then we had like a 10-minute walk or something.

SPEAKER_03 35:18

Oh, that's a problem for me. Oh, I thought it was like super shuttle. So super shuttle when I'm in New York is what I usually take. And super shuttle is sort of the same concept where you pay like, I think it's a little bit more, and then it collects a bunch of people who are going into the city, and then it routes, depending on who's on your shuttle, it drives around the city dropping you off. So however the people are is how you get dropped off. So it could be a quick ride, it could be a little longer. Yeah, it drops you right at your hotel.

SPEAKER_01 35:50

But the I would say the pro to this method is that we're not gonna have to sit through five unique hotel drop-offs. I would rather New York.

SPEAKER_00 36:00

I wouldn't.

SPEAKER_03 36:01

I wouldn't either. I'm not rolling my luggage for a 10-minute walk in New York City. Absolutely not. No, New York City is a walking city. It is no city. Not when you're lugging all your luggage. Okay. Not for me. Well, it's a no-dog. It's a no-dog. Well, I'll tell you what's a no-dog. You had me, and I was so excited. I was also excited about I knew you didn't get dropped in the city.

SPEAKER_00 36:25

Because I'm comfortable with it and I loved it.

SPEAKER_03 36:26

And it's like Will you see how I travel with my luggage? It's not a 10-minute walk with a big suitcase and carry-on.

SPEAKER_01 36:35

We it's not for you.

SPEAKER_03 36:36

I didn't know it wasn't a drop.

SPEAKER_01 36:38

You want to hear okay, I can get us off this topic, AJ, because you want to know what

Creepy Driver Question About Henry

SPEAKER_01 36:42

happened to me last night. What happened? Speaking of Ubers, although this was a lift. So um, I was out last night and I was at the bar till close to close, and I get an Uber ride home. I'm in getting picked up in Royal Oak and getting dropped off where I live in Ferndale. It's it's probably less than a 10-minute Uber drive, right? So then the guy says, the driver says to me, How's your night? And I'm like, Oh, it's fine, thank you.

SPEAKER_00 37:12

You didn't have it in quiet mode, huh?

SPEAKER_01 37:14

No, I no.

SPEAKER_03 37:16

I don't think they pay attention, honestly.

SPEAKER_01 37:18

Yeah, they should.

SPEAKER_03 37:19

Because you've gotten mad before when you had it in quiet mode and we've been chatting away.

SPEAKER_01 37:24

And then he uh says to me, He goes, Well, how's your dog doing? And I said, Yeah, right? I'm like, I'm like your dog, my dog. Which right now Like Henry? Well, he didn't name him by name, but so I didn't know where this was going, and just like if he thought made some assumption, but it was just it was a weird follow-up question to ask me. And so I said, Well, what do you mean by that question?

SPEAKER_00 37:50

Yeah.

SPEAKER_01 37:51

And he says, Well, how don't you have a blind dog? How is he doing?

SPEAKER_00 37:56

That is disgusting.

SPEAKER_01 37:58

And I was freaking the fuck out because I did, I mean, for the listeners, Henry that JJ just mentioned, was our dog that we got together uh way back when, and he act we had it actually, I think we talked about this uh earlier, but we had to put him down almost a year ago. Yeah. So I'm like, I said to the guy, I'm like, have you picked me up before? And he said, Yes, this is my third time.

SPEAKER_00 38:25

Third time. So he remembered you. Yeah.

SPEAKER_03 38:27

Well, I think maybe their app must tell them.

SPEAKER_01 38:29

But Megan, probably I was telling the story to Megan earlier, and we looked in my history and we couldn't we scroll a yeah at least a year, and I didn't I don't see any other What about another app? No, well, and you said you think he's on your team. Oh, oh, well, but like I just I don't know.

SPEAKER_03 38:51

I think he's covering for you.

SPEAKER_01 38:55

How however he collected this information, and any way you slice or dice it, it's creepy to me. Yeah, to say that to me, and it's like, fuck, I'm in this car with a stranger to me, but maybe he doesn't like he feels like he knows me. And it's like the I was telling Megan also the power dynamic is not fair because whoever like it, which is risky for people because you're vulnerable in the sense that you've been drinking and you're doing the right thing from a safety standpoint, you're taking a ride, the driver is sober, you aren't you don't have all of your necessarily faculties in place. And so it could, it's not a great power dynamic because you're like, and and so I'm like, I kind of freaked out. And I I actually called JJ when I got home. I'm like, this just happened. Because like also he drops me off at my house, so he knows exactly where he lives.

SPEAKER_03 39:46

Well, let me ask you this when he dropped you off, like how did he end it? I just said have a good night and I left.

SPEAKER_01 39:52

He didn't oh he didn't kind of give you a wink or like you didn't send a come on. It's two o'clock and yeah, and he's in the front seat. I'm not seeing his wink.

SPEAKER_00 40:01

So he so he so it was not a happy ending.

SPEAKER_03 40:04

Oh, well, let me tell you, this is more proof of the in the pudding of how quickly we need Waymo to come online here.

SPEAKER_00 40:11

Oh, there she goes. Well, I I did see it on the case.

SPEAKER_03 40:14

I am constantly in that app, and they're like not in your area.

SPEAKER_01 40:18

Oh god, I don't know what I would do with myself closing a bar out and getting in a Waymo. I just feel like I'd like start crying in the front seat. Why would you start crying? Just no, I said climb in the front seat.

SPEAKER_03 40:29

Oh, you can sit in the front seat.

SPEAKER_01 40:32

Oh, I see.

SPEAKER_00 40:32

It's been reported that there's like a uh three uh uh threesome that happened on a Waymo.

SPEAKER_03 40:39

Oh wow.

SPEAKER_00 40:40

Well, I'm sure.

SPEAKER_03 40:41

I mean But there are cameras, like I it's not like that's that's what they were looking for. Oh, they wanted to be on camera for the Waymo workers. Oh, I love it.

SPEAKER_00 40:49

From an Uber shuttle. So that was your slipping in. That was my slipping in.

Matching Shirts And Surprise Gratuity

SPEAKER_00 40:54

My pull-out is also related to this trip, and uh it's something that I forgot how much I hated. Oh, and it's a family vacation t-shirt. I hate that so much, too.

SPEAKER_03 41:10

I don't like it either, but you were seeing this in New York?

SPEAKER_00 41:13

Yeah, when I got there.

SPEAKER_03 41:14

I thought it was more like a Disney thing and like no couple of things.

SPEAKER_00 41:19

It's not appropriate in New York. I wish I remember what was the quote. But they had a little like silly quote.

SPEAKER_01 41:25

I remember about like are you talking about a full family or like a couple?

SPEAKER_00 41:30

It was about 10 people. I know with the whole like t-shirts. No, no, I don't know.

SPEAKER_01 41:37

I don't even like it when they're wearing matching outfits without one any saying on them. No, if they were a full-on.

SPEAKER_03 41:44

I don't know. I don't mind that. I don't mind it. Especially if you're a Christmas photo. Yeah, or if you are like at Disney or something like that.

SPEAKER_00 41:53

Disney a lot. Yes, before New York.

SPEAKER_03 41:56

Absolutely not.

SPEAKER_00 41:57

No. Were they at like um it was at the same airport that we were?

SPEAKER_03 42:01

Oh, it was in the airport. Oh, I saw some on the streets. Oh, I it was it like at the Statue of Liberty or Straight. No, no, no, at the airport. Oh, no, no.

SPEAKER_01 42:09

Yes, yeah, we did go up to the Statue of Liberty. Yeah, we did.

SPEAKER_00 42:12

We went to the pedestal.

SPEAKER_03 42:13

Oh, did you go to Ellis Island?

SPEAKER_00 42:15

We went to Ellis Island. We went to Liberty Island.

SPEAKER_03 42:18

Oh, but you didn't do the walk-around Ellis?

SPEAKER_01 42:21

No, no, we just did a drop-off of other people. Oh, okay.

SPEAKER_00 42:24

Yeah.

SPEAKER_03 42:24

The Ellis Island is really amazing.

SPEAKER_00 42:27

I didn't know if my slip it in said is gonna take some time, but yeah. Yeah, this was it. Well, I have mine it's gonna too, probably.

SPEAKER_03 42:32

Oh, really? Well, I have a slip it in that's also kind of related to New York City. Okay. Well, it is directly related. I shouldn't say kind of it is so um everyone knows, I've talked about it previously. A new reality show started last year called Next Gen NYC, which is about all these 20-year-olds in New York City, and half of them are like daughters of real housewives from different franchises.

SPEAKER_00 43:02

A well-known individual. Yeah.

SPEAKER_03 43:04

So, and then some other people who are just New York kids. Um, anyway, it's back. The first episode just aired. Yes, and I have to say it is one of the best first episodes of a second season of a reality show that I've maybe ever seen, or at least seen in a long time.

SPEAKER_00 43:22

That says a lot, even better than Salt Lake City.

SPEAKER_03 43:26

Yeah, a hundred percent. I liked they moved fast. They went from just the way they interspersed the interviews in with the action of what's happening. I did like that. And the scenes, it was quick, it was fast.

SPEAKER_00 43:39

It was very well produced. Yes, they were. I haven't seen it. It was amazing.

SPEAKER_03 43:43

They got through the updates quickly, and then I loved the pairings they did for the interviews and the comments they would make. I absolutely it was just the it was like it moved so quick and fast, and you got all the info and you knew where everyone was and everything was going on, and they started introducing. Producing some new characters, and I'm really excited about the new cast members, including Brookshield's daughter Rowan, who didn't really make an appearance yet. She's gonna be on the next episode, I think. So I highly encourage people if you're looking for a new show, check it out. Yes.

SPEAKER_01 44:17

Isn't Rowan have a pretty good acting career going? Oh no. Is that oh Cindy Crawford's stuff? Yeah, that's Cindy Crawford stuff. Yeah.

SPEAKER_03 44:28

So not Rowan. And I don't, it's not even Shields. I mean I don't know what Brooke Shields has been. I don't know that her last name. Well, I'm gonna watch it. So I look forward to it. But I I'm not done. Oh so anyway, I just have to say, so there's this girl. So first there's this guy, Charlie Zakor, who we talked a lot about last year, because he was all caught up in that crypto torture case that happened in New York City. Anyway, he's very they talk about it on this episode, which I was amazed about. And they insinuated basically that Charlie lived at that crypto torture house for like two months. And then in an interview, he said, Well, my freedom, I can't say anything. My freedom depends on it. So I'm very, yeah.

SPEAKER_00 45:11

So that gets you like he's a layer guy. Yeah. Like it's so much that we don't really know what's going on with this kid.

SPEAKER_01 45:21

I think he knows an accessory, so he's probably got immunity.

SPEAKER_03 45:25

Well, the guy was getting arrested and he's right there on the street coming back to the house. So yeah, he's I'm sure something's going on. That's interesting. But anyway, he brought on originally this girl, Georgia, who's like kind of a New York club kid, whatever. She is no longer speaking to him, but she's a character. She used a term that I loved that I think I'm gonna start using, but I actually think she missed the mark on.

SPEAKER_00 45:51

However, comma.

SPEAKER_03 45:52

Fuck no. No. She said, I learned all this from my gay grapevine. And then she goes into what a gay grapevine is, which is like this all these gays around the world that give her all the gossip and tell her about her friends. She get and I'm like, I love it, but she missed it. It's a gay vine.

unknown 46:14

Yeah.

SPEAKER_01 46:14

Oh, my gay vine. I feel like I need to trademark it. What do you think?

SPEAKER_03 46:19

Is that not like perfect? The gay vine? Because I have been, I've been a uh I have a gay vine const going on.

SPEAKER_01 46:27

Why don't we go on a trip to New York City and JJ and I both wear matching t-shirts? Oh my god, no. Just say gay vine. Oh, I love it. And then she can be like, I'm with my gay vine. Yeah. And we got a TM. We got a trademark. Do you like that, JJ?

SPEAKER_00 46:44

I do like still wear gay vine. Well, there's a difference between that type of t-shirt and saying family vacation in the country.

SPEAKER_01 46:52

True. True. True. Yeah.

SPEAKER_03 46:55

So do you support gay vineyards? I support it. I support it. Oh, I love it. I love it.

SPEAKER_01 46:58

I got a few slip it ins in that segment. I know.

SPEAKER_03 47:01

Well, I wanted to get this approval before I started using K Vine. Because we've seen how to do it.

SPEAKER_01 47:06

Well, you better act fast because this is going to drop next Wednesday. And if you don't I'll trust me, I'll get my stuff together.

SPEAKER_00 47:13

Okay. Okay. Do you have a pull out?

SPEAKER_03 47:15

Oh, I do. So my pull-out actually also could be related to New York, but it didn't happen in New York. I am having issues of I do not like it when a restaurant includes the tip in the bill and doesn't tell you.

SPEAKER_00 47:31

You see it more and more and more.

SPEAKER_03 47:37

But if I'm just there with one, two, three, four people, I'm not assuming I'm getting a tip included. So I would like to be asked because what happens? I get the bill. I'm not always good in a dimly lit bar to see all the numbers.

SPEAKER_01 47:53

Okay, do math.

SPEAKER_03 47:54

And the math, all of it together. So I'm not looking. I just take that last number, I move the decimal, I double it, and that's what I do.

SPEAKER_01 48:02

I move the decimal.

SPEAKER_03 48:03

I don't look at all the other. I, you know.

SPEAKER_01 48:06

Yeah, yeah.

SPEAKER_03 48:07

Okay. So I recently like double tipped because with a bill for like a table of four of us, yeah. I was paying the bill and they didn't tell me it the tip was included. And I never thought to ask with four people.

SPEAKER_00 48:22

Also, I think that if you do tip in those moments, I think that is the responsibility of the waitress or waiters, hey, hey, just FYI. This has already been. I don't know if you know that.

SPEAKER_03 48:32

That's my pull it out. Yeah, the waiter's not telling you. And that's because they won this. Correct. And I think that's BS. It's deceptive. Yes, 100%.

SPEAKER_01 48:40

If you go after them, it could be a class action, but I don't know how we do it. Come after.

SPEAKER_03 48:46

I think probably something somewhere in the menu, small print, said we automatically charge gratuity and it's gonna come back on me. Well it will. I it it makes me not want to go back to those venues again. Yeah.

SPEAKER_00 49:06

They said just at foyer. Tip is included.

SPEAKER_03 49:08

Or when you drop the bill down. Just so you know, tip is included.

SPEAKER_01 49:12

Okay, I'm gonna go. Go for it, man. All right.

Trying To Understand Soccer Time

SPEAKER_01 49:15

I'm gonna go with my pull it out first. And it is, I'm doing my best to try to understand World Cup soccer.

SPEAKER_00 49:25

I'm so excited that you are in it now.

SPEAKER_01 49:28

I well, I have like four teams in it.

SPEAKER_00 49:31

Yes. And what do you mean?

SPEAKER_03 49:33

You're petty.

SPEAKER_00 49:34

He's rooting for four teams. Oh. Some of them he feels that he's got some genetics.

SPEAKER_01 49:39

I'm 46% Scottish whales, so I've got Scotland. And then I and then I am 3% Germany, but I try to keep that on the quiet.

SPEAKER_00 49:51

That's a Nundeo. That's a Nandeo.

SPEAKER_02 49:53

Oh my god.

SPEAKER_01 49:54

And then I'm really rooting for our friendly Canadians because I like Canada better than America at this moment. But you're also rooting for USA. I am because you gotta root for the US.

SPEAKER_00 50:05

Right, because right, right, right, right, right. And also you are decent with Spain.

SPEAKER_01 50:10

Oh, and Spain. Right. Spain is really my fourth. Germany's like okay, Spain as well. Um, so anyway, I get the basis of kick it in the in the goal in the net, and you get a point. What I don't like, first of all, is the clock counts up, not down. Don't like that at all. Like, so usually if you're in a basketball game or a football game, quarters, halves, whatever, it's a countdown clock. This clock goes the other way. So, in my opinion, you're losing the drama of it because it's going up and not there's drama because there's a plus.

SPEAKER_03 50:47

Well, you know what the last number is. So if you're close to that number, it's the same thing as being close to zero. Same diff.

SPEAKER_01 50:54

I don't like it.

SPEAKER_03 50:55

And then I also don't like that it's a 90-minute game, but is a because they just every sporting event is always that way. Do not letting me finish. Okay.

SPEAKER_01 51:06

90 minutes. But when the clock hits 90 minutes, the game's not done.

SPEAKER_00 51:12

Well, it the clock never stops. I'm not talking about it. Even with falls, like fouls, like things like that. The clock never stops. So then they just add shit. So they add the time whether that is on the halftime or at the end, depending on what the referee had to stop the game because nobody knows about that. There might be some dramatics.

SPEAKER_01 51:35

Oh, that's the other thing. And this has actually kind of become a slipping. The time thing, I could go on and on and explain it more, but I don't want to bore the audience. It's I I it just seems like I will say this. The US was playing, it was like midnight. I'm like, oh, two minutes left, nine, it'll hit 90. It went on, and then suddenly someone scored and it ended. And I'm like, Yeah, because they just have one. But if that's not sudden death, it it's just crazy. There's something they need to they need to rethink it. So this is a slip it in or a pull out? That's a pull out. Oh, that's you're done. But I do like, I do like that when they get injured, it is like a telenovela. It's like they're doing an Academy Award performance. Someone gets stepped on the top. And they lose their mind, and they're like in so much anxiety and pain, and then they pop up and they go.

SPEAKER_03 52:32

But I think again, that's like I see that in football all the time, basket, like everyone, they make all the antics.

SPEAKER_00 52:38

Yeah. Well, I just love it. I actually that's a slip it in for me. Listen, Maddie. This is Maddie with me. I like that. He comes in and is like, I don't want to complain about this. That's how he started.

SPEAKER_02 52:50

Yeah.

SPEAKER_00 52:52

And 90 minutes later, he's been complaining about the whole thing.

SPEAKER_02 52:56

Well.

SPEAKER_00 52:56

But I do like, I appreciate you tagging along uh with the work up 100%.

SPEAKER_01 53:02

Okay. My pull it or my slip it in.

Sponsor A Gay Sheep For Pride

SPEAKER_01 53:06

I thought you did the slip it in.

SPEAKER_00 53:07

No, the pull-out was the word work all the time.

SPEAKER_01 53:10

Did you just hear me bitching and complaining?

SPEAKER_00 53:11

Yeah, I see you was just complaining left and right. All right. It's it's my slip it in that he is on the web. All right, that's how I got confused.

SPEAKER_01 53:18

We are still in June. It is still Pride Month. When this drops, it will actually be July 1st. But as one last story I have to talk about for Pride. Storyteller. As a storyteller, that um I just find it so cute and so loving and adorable. There is a company, and it's called Rainbow Wool Shop. And you can sponsor a gay sheep. A gay sheep? Sheep. Sheep. And um statistically, one in twelve sheep is gay. And unfortunately, if you are people are those that have sheep farms, they know because the gay sheep are not mating with the female, and they send them to the slaughterhouse.

SPEAKER_03 54:11

Oh wow.

SPEAKER_01 54:12

They send them to the slaughterhouse. So this company will save these sheep, and you can do a sponsor sheep, they call it. They call it a sponsor sheep.

SPEAKER_00 54:25

That is clear.

SPEAKER_01 54:27

And then they sell, so they they take the wool, yeah, and then they make clothing that you can buy from the gay sheep. And when you sponsor these sheep, they have pictures of all of them up here, and I'll show you guys after. But like here, there's cowboy Joey. Um, there is a cowboy. There's uh Jean Wool Gautier. Uh-huh. Uh, there is Madonna Carl, there's Marvin Gay. Uh you can Prince William.

SPEAKER_00 55:01

Oh.

SPEAKER_01 55:02

Um, and they're Wally Wonka. You can sponsor Wooly Wonka. That's and isn't that so cute? That they what's the company called lesbians? Well, I don't know. Maybe I don't know the names.

SPEAKER_03 55:14

Well, probably because the girl sheep mounted. They don't they don't know.

SPEAKER_00 55:19

They don't get it, but they might be some.

SPEAKER_01 55:21

So they're all guys because they know when this sheep is trying to hook up with woolly wonka.

SPEAKER_00 55:27

They might be some Uncle Kathy.

SPEAKER_01 55:29

Oh, Jesus Christ. It's called It's called Rainbow Wool. Okay.

SPEAKER_00 55:37

And it's you can go rain so cute.

SPEAKER_01 55:39

SPEAKER_01 55:45

And then you can do a sponsorship from there.

SPEAKER_00 55:49

A sponsorship?

SPEAKER_01 55:50

Sponsorsheep. Yep. That's really cute. I love that.

SPEAKER_00 55:54

It's the cutest thing. I love it so much. That's a great slip it in. That is so good.
