#179 After 2 Beers: When a Raccoon Holds Your Meth Pipe, You Know You've Made Poor Life Choices

After 2 Beers Episode 179

Remember when taking a selfie just meant striking a pose and snapping a quick pic? Those days are clearly gone as we dive into not one but TWO stories of selfie-seekers whose pursuit of the perfect shot landed them in the hospital. One man climbed into a crocodile enclosure because he thought the reptile was fake (spoiler: it wasn't), while another tourist became impaled on Rome's Colosseum fence trying to get that Instagram-worthy angle.

But the ridiculous human behavior doesn't stop there. A Turkish town accidentally got high for FIVE DAYS when authorities burned 20 tons of seized cannabis in the open air, creating a smoke cloud that enveloped the entire community. Meanwhile, in Ohio, police pulled over a woman only to discover her pet raccoon, Chewy, attempting to smoke a meth pipe in the passenger seat. And yes, there's video evidence.

We also tackle more serious conversations about Virginia's new law restricting minors from social media usage, Airbnb's celebrity experience service (who would you choose to hang out with?), and the declining interest in parenthood among young adults. Between fits of laughter and thoughtful debate, we somehow manage to cover everything from dangerous playground equipment of yesteryear to the universal truth that peeing in your backyard is just part of being human.

The world can be an absurd place, but it's also filled with people who might be struggling beneath the surface. So while we laugh at the outrageous headlines, we hope you'll take a moment to check in on someone who might need it. Sometimes a simple "how are you doing?" can be the one thing that helps someone make it through another day.

Speaker 1:

uh, if this is your first time watching the after two beers program, basically what we do is, uh, we consume at a minimum two beers before we get started two.

Speaker 2:

Five days. Oh my God, I want to go. Where are we at? No, it's way, way better than that.

Speaker 1:

Puddin' and I were looking at some of our CIA plans that have gone askew over the last few years. We're going to chat about one of those tonight, probably going to chat about a bunch more in the future. And you know, when we first started this thing, way back almost over eight years ago, over eight years now the idea was that it was things that people would just kind of bullshit and have a good time with, have a drink, and I've got some what I consider bonfire discussion material, a bar discussion. However you want to do it, long drives. Maybe you're just sitting at the house bored in the summer. Yep, I've got some discussion topics of stuff that's pertinent to the day. Ooh, and then we'll just throw it out there and then we'll go from there. All right, let's get started. Aaron Haskett, thanks for speaking up. Florida People are wild.

Speaker 3:

Yes, they are, aaron. I hope we see you Saturday.

Speaker 1:

Yes, All right, are you guys ready for your first story?

Speaker 2:

Yeah, what do you?

Speaker 1:

got, let's do people doing dumb shit. You want to talk about the guy from Indiana first?

Speaker 4:

Yes, yeah is a bus driver.

Speaker 1:

It was not good. I should have printed this off sooner. All right, here we go. All right, uh. According to the uh davies county sheriff's office, this happened in indiana. A dispatch uh received a call that a school bus was stuck in the mud at the medium of US 50 and Country Road, county Road, country Road that's funny Country. Road, country Road. Us 50, county Road, 300 West in Washington, indiana. The bus driver, mr Stephen Truelove.

Speaker 2:

What a great name for a bus driver. Yeah, that sounds like a guy that has to talk to his neighbors, not since he's going to end up in jail Right.

Speaker 1:

Well, how did he pass this thing With to talk to his neighbors, not since he's going to end up in jail, right? Well, how did he pass this thing With a name like True Love? This is the last dude you want driving your kids to school. Anyway, I'm just kidding Mr True Love, if you're watching. He was taken to the Davies Community Hospital for a drug and alcohol screen, where it determined that his BAC level was .221. Holy cow, in the morning he was driving kids on a field trip, holy cow.

Speaker 1:

Four adults, 38 children were removed from the bus. Thankfully, no one was injured.

Speaker 3:

And True Love was charged with operating a vehicle.

Speaker 2:

I'm just thinking like Billy Madison, where he's like eating up all their sandwiches and such Right.

Speaker 1:

What a great who eats 20 lunches.

Speaker 2:

Look at this guy. Oh great, who eats 20 lunches? That's right. Look at this guy.

Speaker 3:

Oh man, true love. Knock it off, buddy, come on now. It does exist, apparently.

Speaker 1:

Yeah, apparently yeah.

Speaker 2:

He's going to find some true love in jail it's the love of the alcohol. Sorry, I mean what Does it say what time this field trip was? I mean, you got to figure it happened between eight in the morning and three in the afternoon. Point two he's like oh man, I've only had a couple of these, I'm good. It's just from the night before, I'm all good oh my gosh what the?

Speaker 3:

heck, you know, I've heard funny, it might be espresso martini.

Speaker 1:

I've heard deals where people are surprised that if you go out like for a bender the night before and you get up in the morning and do a breathalyzer, how hot or how drunk you still are.

Speaker 3:

Oh, I bet. Oh, I've driven to work the next day and been like, oh shit, I should probably make sure that I'm watching my movies and news. This was years ago though.

Speaker 4:

Years ago, years ago. Absolutely Nothing recent.

Speaker 1:

Yeah, I remember waking up my early twenties and pounding up. I was going to say 22 ounces or like a big. Remember Hardee's had the mousse cup. Yeah, oh, yeah, yeah, yeah, you chug one of those with water and by the halfway to work, that stuff was kicking in again. Yeah.

Speaker 3:

It was not good.

Speaker 2:

McDonald's, get your biscuit.

Speaker 3:

I was going to say it was definitely early 20s where there were I'm going to age myself, obviously, but they were Wednesday night dollar bottles, nice.

Speaker 1:

Yeah, yeah, obviously, but they were Wednesday night, dollar bottles, nice, and karaoke and dancing when I was at Ball State, we had penny pitcher night on Thursdays and the day before was penny draft night and yeah do you? Have a go to hangover food, it's gotta be McDonald's.

Speaker 3:

I was gonna say McDonald's. Coca-cola will just like kick in right, Like a lot of times, like I used to order two.

Speaker 2:

Yeah.

Speaker 3:

Because about halfway through the first one I'm like oh, I'm feeling a little normal, feeling a little normal. Now I need to rehydrate.

Speaker 1:

Yeah, they put some of the clown's jism or something in there.

Speaker 2:

It's amazing.

Speaker 4:

Yeah, all right.

Speaker 1:

Here is our Florida story. Vincent Conroy, 56, was allegedly drunk and walking around a Florida parking lot wearing only a T-shirt with no pants. This was last Wednesday morning. His private parts were on public display. He was spotted with two wine bottles and a can of beer. So he's poop bearing it Right, literally. Okay, like just a shirt. Now wait a minute, just a shirt.

Speaker 2:

So he's got two bottles of wine and a can of beer. Yeah, what's holding what he's got? Probably one in the crack he's got one somewhere.

Speaker 1:

In addition to open container and exposure of sexual organs counts. I didn't even know that was a thing, Exposure of sexual organ counts. He was charged with providing a false name. Now this is my favorite part of the story.

Speaker 2:

Oh God, what a dream.

Speaker 1:

There he is, he told them that his name was Charles Dickens.

Speaker 3:

It was Dickens. All right, Old Chuck was showing his Dickens. All right, he's got my Dickens. It was.

Speaker 1:

Dickens all right, I wrote.

Speaker 3:

Old Chuck was showing his Dickens all right, got my Dickens out.

Speaker 1:

I have to say this is a funny joke and I feel like he should have gotten away with a warning. What are you drinking? A Dickens cider. Dickens cider. What's your name? Charles Dickens. After a day locked up in the local house, he was freed Thursday, with his own reconnaissance, by a county judge. That's my new name from now on, but now I'm pretty sure, walking around the parking lot, he is also going to have to talk to neighbors.

Speaker 3:

Yeah, yeah, because he was out there chucking his dickens. Yeah, you know what?

Speaker 1:

This is what happens, two bottles of wine and a beer and you have to check felony for the rest of your life on your application. I'm sure it's worth it, buddy. You know, I don't know Mr Conroy, but I'd be willing to bet this may not be his first run in with the wall.

Speaker 2:

He doesn't seem like the voting type anymore, right.

Speaker 1:

And you can get a gun in Florida anywhere, so that's not going to be a problem for him. It's all good, it's all right, all right. What's our next one here?

Speaker 2:

What do you got?

Speaker 1:

Let's see here, let's jump in, let's talk about the whole town that got high.

Speaker 2:

Oh yes, this is hilarious. All right, so I was going to go to work, but then they got high.

Speaker 1:

Everybody was high and then the whole town got high, golly, I got to figure out a way to look this shit up faster. You know, I learned. I don't know how you can read that because I'm 46 and I'm 47. I need some binoculars to see that yeah it's getting rough on me, though I'm not gonna lie to you maybe it's up here in the front.

Speaker 1:

See, this is what happens when you have a real job. Oh, oh, oh, gonna lie to you. Maybe it's up here in the front. See, this is what happens when you have a real job. Oh, oh, oh, I think I know where it's at got it I think I got it all right.

Speaker 1:

Here we go. We go, we'll edit that out. Snip, snip, clip, snip. All right, here we go. There's a turkish town, so we're in turkey. Turkey, it's uh called lice. Yeah, l-i-c-e it's uh. You know, it probably wouldn't be a cool name here, maybe in turkey.

Speaker 3:

It's probably like, like or something you never know I've been known to butcher pronunciations on no, you're not not a single time.

Speaker 1:

It happens. Anyway, there's it. The town has about 25 people.

Speaker 2:

So just slightly smaller than here in Richmond.

Speaker 1:

So it's a good-sized community. Well, the authorities there had seized 20 tons of cannabis Holy cow.

Speaker 2:

Yes, I didn't realize it was that much. Yeah, 20 tons.

Speaker 1:

Yeah, they say the value in the US was $261 million. Million. It happened on April 18th, Apparently someone in the town Two days before the time.

Speaker 3:

Well, it lasted for five days.

Speaker 2:

I mean yeah, so they were already lit on 420, just getting them munchies going. I bet you the grocery store sold out of everything. Nothing got done.

Speaker 1:

I'm 420 just getting them munchies going, I bet you.

Speaker 2:

The grocery store is sold out of everything.

Speaker 3:

Nothing got done. Nothing got done. Nacho cheese Doritos is gone. I was reading.

Speaker 1:

apparently, they use an incinerator to burn up the weed, right, right. Well, somebody got a bright idea. They took all of these trash bags that well, you can see the big giant pile right there of this. They spelled out the town's name L-I-C-E in these bags. Well, they lit them on fire and the smoke got out of control. It's unclear. Get it Right.

Speaker 2:

Why do?

Speaker 1:

you got these big fans. This kind of reminds me Right, the boat got out of control. It's unclear.

Speaker 2:

Get it yeah right, why you got these big fans.

Speaker 1:

This kind of reminds me Right, exactly, yes, it reminds me of. We had that big giant blastic fire here in.

Speaker 2:

Richmond. Yeah, right For like days and days.

Speaker 1:

This lasted for five days. People had to keep their windows closed oh bullshit and avoid going outside.

Speaker 2:

People are sitting on their porch Hot box in my house.

Speaker 1:

I bet you the police had zero, domestic Zero, none, nothing. Everybody was just chill. Pizza dominoes went through the roof.

Speaker 2:

Everything Snoop.

Speaker 3:

Dogg and Willie Nelson showed up.

Speaker 2:

No crime or nothing. It was peaceful and quiet.

Speaker 1:

People with pain were finally comfortable. They slept decent.

Speaker 3:

They don't remember shit, but short term memory gone.

Speaker 1:

Oh, so there you go. Oh man, what else we got going?

Speaker 2:

So we know 20 tons of pot will burn for five days.

Speaker 1:

I'm on it. 200 million, that's a lot.

Speaker 2:

This is the kind of lord.

Speaker 1:

After day two, they should have been bringing a music festival in, or something.

Speaker 2:

Ooh yeah, Now they're doing the same thing we are. He's talking about random shit, Dude. You hear about this in the US. I would go Would you go?

Speaker 1:

Yeah, absolutely. Yeah right, it's the burning man.

Speaker 2:

Only in Europe, the burning something. It's a way better burning experience.

Speaker 1:

Yeah, all right. What else we got here?

Speaker 2:

The lightsaber, oh yeah, we gotta talk about this guy. Yeah, what about this guy?

Speaker 1:

Yeah, a 25-year-old man in Nebraska. His name is Aiden White. He's been arrested after he attacked his 37-year-old female neighbor and her 7-year-old daughter, what With a Star Wars lightsaber. Now I'm going to say the word attack is very generous, okay, but now he did strike the little girl. He first struck the girl when she was out playing with her friends. Like what kind of 25-year-old's like I'm going to go. He's got to beef with the mom. This is true, really. Yeah, the mom confronted him about it. He said he had hit her in the arm and shoulder with the lightsaber. Both the mother and the daughter say he hit them hard enough that it was painful with the lightsaber. Both the mother and the daughter say he hit them hard enough that it was painful.

Speaker 2:

Yeah, okay, somebody's trying to get paid.

Speaker 1:

The police were called and Aiden admitted to the attack. He told the cops that he was upset with the victims because his rent was going to be raised, supposedly because the victims kept a shared thermostat too high.

Speaker 2:

Well, if it was a house full of women, I'm sure it was too high. First of all, and it probably had nothing to do with the pay of the bill.

Speaker 1:

Can you sleep when it's hot?

Speaker 3:

I am the one that turned on the AC today. Josh was just like I'm like dude, it's like 77 degrees in this house. No, thank you, absolutely not.

Speaker 1:

Burning up.

Speaker 3:

That's normally when I get the we're going to start getting neighbor complaints if they see me walking around naked all the time.

Speaker 2:

Oh, it's Cam again. Oh, there she goes, Damn it.

Speaker 4:

Cam. What's that?

Speaker 1:

all Hit him with a lightsaber, oh man.

Speaker 3:

Thick plastic. I mean I'd probably hit somebody with a lightsaber if it was too hot in my house.

Speaker 2:

Yeah, I mean you might have to.

Speaker 1:

I'd fuck up a kid for the lightsaber.

Speaker 3:

I'll throw L's, throw L's Throw some bows.

Speaker 1:

I can't stand it being hot man.

Speaker 3:

There's only so much you can take off.

Speaker 2:

True, true.

Speaker 3:

When it's cold, you can add on.

Speaker 2:

Yeah, they always tell me to put it back on that when it's cold, you can add on.

Speaker 1:

Yeah, they always tell me to put it back on. That's what happened to that guy in Florida.

Speaker 3:

He was just hot.

Speaker 2:

in Florida, josh is out mowing the yard and all of a sudden we've got people thinking they saw Sasquatch. Here's him out there poo-bearing it.

Speaker 1:

Whatever don't judge me. They're like oh man, there's a tiny gorilla mowing the grass. It's awesome.

Speaker 3:

They're throwing bananas in the yard Sasquatch.

Speaker 2:

You're taking photos.

Speaker 1:

You know what? Let's jump into some of our A to B discussions. Airbnb is coming out with something.

Speaker 3:

I heard about that this morning.

Speaker 1:

They're not renting houses anymore. The founder and CEO, brian Chesky, announced they're adding new services. They include things like massages and personal training, but they're also doing experiences that are tailored to specific locations. So, for instance, if you're in Paris, maybe it's a class on how to make pastries, so a travel agent. No, it's more about experiences.

Speaker 3:

It's not necessarily and see, I thought that there I had heard something about like famous artists.

Speaker 1:

Okay also, you'll be able to rent celebrities celebrities. Um chesky said he has dozens of famous people ready to participate. Initial offerings would include listen to this. This is interesting. A day playing football and eating barbecue with Kansas City Chiefs quarterback Patrick Mahomes. Okay, a day-long experience with Sabrina Carpenter and Megan Thee Stallion I'm good, you're right. But here's the question I have for you and anybody that's watching oh, if you could pick a celebrity, what celebrity would you pick, and what activity?

Speaker 3:

Dolly or Reba.

Speaker 1:

Okay.

Speaker 2:

Snoop Smoking.

Speaker 4:

We're going to Turkey. We're going to Turkey.

Speaker 2:

We're going to Turkey.

Speaker 1:

I don't know I dig that one. I was thinking about this today because I knew I was going to ask this Right and I was thinking, you know Euchre would be interesting because you can sit down and converse while you're playing.

Speaker 2:

Oh, yeah, that would be awesome.

Speaker 1:

And I was like John Goodman might be a cool one. I was thinking him Really. Yeah, yeah, I'm just all yeah, Dolly Parton's a great one, by the way.

Speaker 3:

Dolly Parton is probably the highest on my list, yeah.

Speaker 1:

That would be really cool.

Speaker 3:

Like. I feel like I'd have a few more years for Reba.

Speaker 1:

Yeah, I thought you know, like there's other people, that I'm just fascinated by President Obama.

Speaker 2:

Oh wow, that would be an interesting conversation.

Speaker 1:

There's so many people in baseball that I'd love to actually just sit and watch a baseball game with but really just get their stories and that kind of stuff Talk about it, so the idea of this is pretty clever. Obviously, I'll never be able to afford it.

Speaker 2:

Oh yeah, what's it starting out at? I didn't even look, I didn't even want to entertain it.

Speaker 1:

I can promise you this.

Speaker 2:

Podcast host does not pay for hanging out with Patrick Mahomes Eating barbecue and playing football.

Speaker 3:

I can tell you, podcast host barely affords going to a football game. So we were looking up. So Cowboys are going to be at the Bears September 21st and we were looking up and like five rows from the very, very top are still like $600 a piece.

Speaker 2:

You don't want to go to Chicago anyways.

Speaker 3:

Hey, easy bro, easy Down on the south side, south side, I love Chicago, chicago Easy.

Speaker 1:

Down on the south side.

Speaker 3:

South side. I love Chicago, chicago, all right.

Speaker 1:

Here's my next one that I wanted to bring up as a possible discussion topic. They recently did a survey and they talked to 2,000 kids. I call them kids, but they're from 18 to 29 years old.

Speaker 3:

Those are kids.

Speaker 1:

Yeah, to me they are. They were surveyed by the harvard youth poll and here was the interesting part only 48 said procreating is crucial and even fewer, 46, believe children were within reach. So the idea being is that we've gotten to a point now where our young people almost half, don't, don't don't necessarily want to have kids okay I probably think of the economy, the state of everything.

Speaker 1:

Well, they had six life goals and having kids was the lowest rank of the six, the uh and include. Number one was financial security. Second was home ownership. Uh three was long-term romantic partnership kids.

Speaker 3:

Kids will mess all those things up.

Speaker 1:

Four was marriage, which is interesting to me because marriage has fallen so far.

Speaker 1:

Oh yeah, this is one of the things that Harrison Butker, the kicker for Kansas City got into the issue with where he basically came out and said once you graduate, ladies, go home and get married and have kids. And what is interesting is that's not what kids want to do. No, not anymore. And my question and I'm not saying we have to discuss it on this show, this is one of your questions, for you know, at home Is it because religion is less important? A lot of religion is based upon getting married, having kids, raising a family. Yeah, and these people are more like I'd rather just do me. Yeah.

Speaker 1:

Well, I think that there's also Where'd that come from?

Speaker 3:

I think people are a little more selfish these days too, you think it's selfish.

Speaker 3:

I'm not saying it's a bad thing to be selfish, but I think that they're like no, the way that I want to live it's not going to be good for a kid, it's not even just hey you don't need to, just do, you have fun uh, yeah, more or less, and it's interesting and I don't think it's necessarily being selfish for you right being just being like you know what, if you want to live and do the things that you want to do, hold off on having the babies, because this is what it's going to take, and yeah, if you want to do that, great well, and everything's so much more expensive, oh yeah yeah, shit's, shit's pricey.

Speaker 1:

oh, oh, my gosh, it's very pricey. You got like a whole fortune of kids too. Oh believe me.

Speaker 2:

It cost me like 60 bucks at McDonald's the other day. I was like are you fucking serious?

Speaker 1:

Oh my God, For one meal For him. What do you mean me?

Speaker 3:

That's his go home.

Speaker 2:

He's like never mind, I'll just get these for the kids $60.

Speaker 1:

Actually, I'll be honest with you, I am surprised. So many times now when I go through fast food I'm like I had to have just set a record. The other night I go through for me and Amanda and Eliza and it was close to $30 at Taco Bell.

Speaker 2:

That's what I told. I texted her.

Speaker 3:

Speaker 3:

Did you know who does that?

Speaker 1:

We have the meats. Who says it? I have no idea.

Speaker 3:

Look it up because it's been the same guy for years. And when you look it up you're like, oh my god, I remember him from movies and such I can't remember his name right off the bat. I'm going to look it up. It sounds like it was actually a trivia question.

Speaker 1:

I almost did the other day. Save it, give it. Give somebody a hint. Give aaron a hint right now. Uh, while you're looking it up, a recent poll asked men, do you pee in your backyard? 45 are liars. Right, absolutely they. Uh, they have a really small backyard. Maybe they said no, I pee in my backyard all the time that is a liar.

Speaker 2:

I don't even have a big backyard and I still do it.

Speaker 1:

There's times where I will walk by a bathroom to go pee outside, and I mean this sincerely.

Speaker 2:

Especially late at night. That's what.

Speaker 2:

We have the meats. Mike Thompson knew it. Mike Thompson came in with it.

Speaker 1:

Oh my gosh, what's your favorite Ving Rhames movie? Pulp Fiction, pulp Fiction, pulp Fiction. Yeah, you know the Band-Aid on the back of the head. Yeah, he had cut himself and Quentin told him to leave it and he goes. There's no symbolism behind it at all.

Speaker 1:

I question it. I fucking love it, love it. Farmer Brad LLC. Good evening, thank you. Good evening to you, buddy. What do you grow, farmer Brad, or take care of? I guess it can also be livestock too are you in Turkey? Are you in Ohio? Okay, so you pee. Does Josh pee in the backyard?

Speaker 2:

Why did I smell burnt hair? I'm going to have to use chapstick, not one of her finer moments.

Speaker 3:

It was not a finer moment.

Speaker 1:

I will tell you one of the funniest things I've seen Kim Ross ever do is one night she convinced Amanda and I that she could do kip-ups. Oh, no. And she attempted to try to do said kip-ups in my basement Didn't happen. No, it looked like she was trying to fuck a ghost. It looked like she was doing pelvic thrusts.

Speaker 3:

I thought I had that muscle strength. Oh my God, it was hilarious yeah.

Speaker 1:

Ghost 2 looks way cooler than. Ghost 1. That's all I'm saying.

Speaker 2:

Ghost 2, Electric Boogaloo. Oh yeah, that's the best one ever. All right, let's jump into somealoo.

Speaker 1:

Oh yeah, that's the best one ever. All right, let's jump into some Kanye news. Oh Jesus, oh, this guy I'm telling you. So, gibber, you haven't heard the story. No, he just released a new single, yep, and it's going to be hard to find. It's not on Spotify, it's on SoundCloud, not on.

Speaker 2:

Apple Music SoundCloud, not on Apple Music I think it's on.

Speaker 1:

Is it on Apple? I don't think so. I would hope not. I didn't even look. It's on Twitter. It's already racked up millions of streams.

Speaker 3:

Or X.

Speaker 1:

X. Yes, the song is titled Hail Hitler, heil, hitler Heil.

Speaker 2:

Yes, have you not heard this, this son?

Speaker 1:

of a gun. Did you listen to it? No, I didn't either.

Speaker 2:

I didn't even look it up. No, I wouldn't even. I would not even have that on my phone. No, I'm not going to entertain it.

Speaker 1:

It's also received millions of views for the artwork that resembles a swastika.

Speaker 2:

I just saw a video of him not too long ago. He had a shirt come out with a swastika on it and isn't he going through another divorce? Oh, I didn't know about that.

Speaker 3:

He's going to another divorce. Well, he made his lady friend show up butt naked.

Speaker 1:

Yeah, with some Saran, wrap on oh man, she could have peed out of fire Cheap On the red carpet. On the red carpet, I don't know. That guy is out there.

Speaker 3:

He's lost his mind.

Speaker 1:

Well, actually, John Legend just came out and I guess they were buddies back in the day and he said that he saw a dramatic change in kanye when kanye's mother passed. Okay and uh, I think it's known that he is bipolar and it sounds to me like maybe mom was the one that was keeping him on his meds or keeping him following the path that he needs to follow right and uh.

Speaker 2:

Now, that he's out there in the world, he's just doing whatever, and the guy is so talented, so he is. That's the thing he's good there in the world, he's just doing whatever. And the guy is so talented, so talented he is, that's the thing, he's good. But then you're like no, it's like you're putting out this kind of stuff.

Speaker 3:

It's like I don't know that. I want to listen to your old stuff.

Speaker 2:

I'm not going to entertain it, yeah.

Speaker 1:

All right, here's a story out of Virginia. This goes back to our um uh bonfire discussions. We can chat about them next year don't be him out. It's nothing, nerdy uh governor glenn yunkin of virginia. He just signed an amendment to the uh constitution there in virginia that says uh, starting at the beginning of the year, they are restricting or banning minors under the age of 16 from using social media for more than one hour a day on each platform, so it's going to require parents to give uh verifiable consent if they want to increase or decrease the period.

Speaker 1:

Now you say good yes okay, here's and this is the bonfire discussion. I'm not saying I agree or disagree with your opinion. The question is is it the government's job to?

Speaker 3:

tell our kids. Yeah, it's been the government's job to parent kids for a lot of years in school. Unfortunately, there's a lot of kids out there that don't have good parents at home doing the parenting so unfortunately there's times that you know the government student like teachers have to somewhat parent.

Speaker 1:

Yeah, it's a slippery slope.

Speaker 2:

It's a slippery slope. It's a slippery slope, it's everyone foot on the fire.

Speaker 1:

Everything is Now let me ask you if they deem, five years from now, after this has gone through, that you know what Social media really sucks for everybody. It's not just for kids, it sucks for everybody. Yeah, kim, we are only going to let you have access to your social media 20 minutes a day. Okay, all right, you wouldn't be pissed.

Speaker 3:

Nah, really Nah. It would probably make me a more productive human. Is it just because of social media? A lot of times it's just like I'm just flipping through.

Speaker 1:

I'm not even watching anymore. It's not even about this and I'm not even that guy. Honestly, I probably do. Maybe we can hang out more. Bonfires and pee on stuff. What about all those people that are influencers?

Speaker 2:

What are they going to do? Have to get a job.

Speaker 1:

No, I'm serious and I'm shocked. The only reason and again, I'm not a big social media advocate. I don't know. No, I'm serious and I'm shocked. The only reason again, I'm not a big social media advocate.

Speaker 3:

I would love to be able to cut myself off of it more. Then just do it.

Speaker 4:

So honestly, no. So here's honestly. Did you see that?

Speaker 2:

look. No, did you get that look?

Speaker 3:

So, honestly, I probably only like watch reels on Facebook Other than just like maybe a little scan of Facebook. I'll just do reels or maybe do some TikToks. But I really don't do the social media near as often. But, like I do, I'm worried about aging, so I'm trying to do games that like stimulate my brain. So I've been doing like cryptogram, but then I catch myself getting addicted to just playing cryptogram.

Speaker 1:

Right, okay, so it has nothing to do with social, you're just but.

Speaker 3:

I have cut back. I've cut way back on social media.

Speaker 1:

Yeah, yeah. What if they told you I'm trying to think of something that the whole point really is it's less about what they're telling you that you can't do, it's more a fact that they're telling you period, yeah, you know what I mean. And so if they came to you and said, hey, we recommend you reckon well, all screen time? Yeah, they didn't.

Speaker 3:

Then they said people don't like wearing a seat belt, but they're telling you you've got to. Yeah, I mean there's other things that like if you choose not to, then you suffer consequences if you get busted.

Speaker 1:

Right, right, well, which I mean? It's very liberal of you.

Speaker 2:

I'm shocked you know so much. This is definitely a bonfire.

Speaker 1:

That's what I'm talking about, and that's the whole thing, right.

Speaker 2:

Everybody in your households talk about this. What do you think about it?

Speaker 1:

I'm fascinated by it because it is the first time that I've seen the government step in to try to really ring in social media.

Speaker 2:

Because up until this point.

Speaker 1:

I mean, it seems to me like any time those guys are feeling like they're feeling the pinch, they show up with a paycheck and suddenly everything's okay again right.

Speaker 2:

Well, isn't it true too? Like over in China, their TikTok is more educational.

Speaker 3:

Well, yeah, which is ironic because we just cut funding for, like, pbs, yeah, so yeah, aren't they also trying to cut funding for our local TV station Actually, kevin Shook's the guy to talk to about that to cut funding for our local TV station that's a actually Kevin Shook's the guy to talk to about that.

Speaker 2:

I don't think they're cutting funding. They just didn't raise funds. That's a non-profit.

Speaker 3:

Oh gotcha. Yeah, I knew I had heard something about that might be.

Speaker 1:

It's interesting because basically, you're looking at the merits of social media as a negative right about that might be. It's interesting because basically, you're looking at the merits of social media as a negative right.

Speaker 3:

It can be very positive too, but Well, that's the interesting part.

Speaker 1:

So let's say, if it was all positive, would there be a limit? Probably not.

Speaker 2:

No, because deep down we all know it's a bunch of shit.

Speaker 3:

Right.

Speaker 1:

Right, but this is their way of saying it without saying it. Farmer Brad, maybe it's a bunch of shit.

Speaker 3:

Right, right, right, but this is their way of saying it without saying it. Uh, farmer brad, maybe it's a result of zuckerberg, not, being relatable on theo vaughn's podcast.

Speaker 1:

here's the thing with people that are smart, right, like and I didn't see this, um which I love theo vaughn, because basically his whole comedy is I knew a kid that used to do weird shit and I have a really funny way to talk about it, right right, he can talk about anything and you're just like intrigued.

Speaker 3:

But in trade he's like man we had a kid in class.

Speaker 1:

he would eat boogers out of horses' noses and it was like.

Speaker 2:

It's the way he presents it. Oh, he's good, delivers it. His delivery is phenomenal.

Speaker 1:

The way he presents it, delivers it, it's phenomenal but as far as Farmer Bradgate, mark Zuckerberg is unrelatable to anybody. And that's the whole thing with Elon Musk. The more you see him speak, the more you just realize that he, he's an odd character he's an odd dude, smart people are fucking weird. Am I right?

Speaker 2:

yeah, no, you're right I don't know, I wouldn't know I believe me, I hang out with you, yeah I'm kidding, I'm kidding I kid, I kid

Speaker 1:

really not that untrue. I'm joking, uh, no, I'm just interested again. It's just, uh, this is the first time I know. We've been doing podcasts now for eight years and back in the day we've interviewed some really, really famous people on the show Nikki Glaser, nikki Glaser, but the one that Adam Carolla is, the one that jumps to me is just because he was like the father of this stuff. Yeah, and before Joe Rogan really took over, it was Adam Carolla. And the interesting part to me and I'm still shocked to this day day, they have not figured out a way to try to ring our. You know, bring in podcasts, okay, there's no filter for them.

Speaker 4:

You can literally come on here and say whatever you want.

Speaker 1:

Whatever you want, yeah and then one of the stories I didn't want to really talk about. It actually happened in ohio. A uh, a kid uh. When I say kid, he's under 30 to me, uh, he went and checked out 100 books at a library and they were all on LGBTQ rights, african-american rights, jewish rights, and he burned them all on social media. Really.

Speaker 4:

He said he was cleansing the.

Speaker 1:

Lysberries by taking this material out. Right, goodness. And again, it's not filtered. You can do that and I put in my notes. It's technically protected in this country by the First Amendment and as long as he pays for those books, then wow.

Speaker 3:

Oh, he's going to have those book fees due for the rest of his life.

Speaker 1:

He's got to replace the books, obviously, but it's just this kind of stuff, I don't know. This is where social media has just gone off. Kilter Farmer Bread says I make automatic chicken waterers in my basement in Wayne County. Not sure if that makes me relatable Automatic chicken waterers.

Speaker 3:

I want to see what these automatic chicken waterers are. That sounds pretty cool.

Speaker 1:

Tell me no, it does no. Just tell me you're from the Midwest.

Speaker 2:

People in California Chicken waterers.

Speaker 1:

I would love to see more about these chicken waterers. It's a bucket Right.

Speaker 2:

With water in it, that might be a little bit more intense than that? Yeah, probably what else you got?

Speaker 1:

there. Yeah, all right, you guys talked to. We saw the raccoon with the meth pipe. That was hilarious the cops. This happened in Ohio as well. 55-year-old Victoria Vidal. She got pulled over near Akron last month actually, because this was two Mondays ago for an outstanding warrant.

Speaker 2:

It's always such a funny word to say outstanding, outstanding, great, wonderful one of all the warrants I could pull you over that one's outstanding uh, she was also driving with a suspended license, but none of that mattered.

Speaker 1:

Uh, it's in the news because one of her passengers in her car was a pet raccoon. Yeah, and um, she got busted for drugs after the police officer and you can watch the video of this too uh, when he goes and investigates the open car window on the driver's side uh, the raccoon is holding a meth pipe and he acts like he's trying to smoke it. He can't smoke it, he can't light it.

Speaker 1:

He ain't got no donks right silly raccoon, you can't smoke that, that meth. Well, the the cop took the meth pipe from him and, lo and behold, the raccoon found another one.

Speaker 2:

Yes, he had two of them.

Speaker 1:

Look how happy she is. Oh, she's happy. Well, yeah, she's on drugs.

Speaker 2:

Got that meth, that's methed up man, I can smell this video.

Speaker 1:

Oh my gosh, oh my gosh, there are some you can look at is, uh, it looks like she has like trellis inside her windows.

Speaker 3:

there's the raccoon, cute little fella now, uh, what was interesting I read about this looks like her engine is inside the car. Yeah, that's.

Speaker 1:

Oh, that's just the yeah, she doesn't have a panel on that. Yeah, that's. Oh, that's just the yeah.

Speaker 3:

She doesn't have a panel on that side.

Speaker 1:

Yeah, yeah, that's.

Speaker 2:

Oh, get back. No, don't grab the pipe. Don't grab that one, grab the other one.

Speaker 1:

Wow. One report said the cop took the first meth pipe away. Chewy is the name of the raccoon, I love it. He grabbed a second pipe and tried to smoke that one. Maybe he was helping the cop he's like look at this.

Speaker 4:

He ratted her out. What does that?

Speaker 3:

person have on a leash, though, Like there's something outside.

Speaker 1:

Oh, that's a cane, and then there's a leash, or?

Speaker 3:

something I don't know. Yeah, so he doesn't know, because there was another passenger in the car too, oh.

Speaker 1:

Uh, it's a dog.

Speaker 3:

Okay, we got a dog and a raccoon.

Speaker 1:

A dog and a raccoon Look at the raccoon. He's like I told her Dog would be good for you, Dog would be good for you. Uh, they ended up finding three more pipes, a small amount of crack, seven grams of meth. She's also facing felony drug possessions. Now the good news is poor old Chewy there. He's good Chewy's fine. They were checking to see if Victoria had the proper permits to legally own a raccoon. I'm going to go out on a limb and say she probably didn't, based upon everything else Based upon everything else.

Speaker 2:

I'm funny.

Speaker 3:

She probably didn't have, yeah she probably didn't have a permit to drive a vehicle, so yeah, yeah, her license was distributed, yeah license was distributed, so yeah, I just think it'd be funny if that's the one thing she did have all the paperwork

Speaker 4:

no, it's all right here.

Speaker 2:

Here's Chewy's papers so you got the paperwork for the wreck Chewy's like you gonna bomb me out or what's up you gonna Chewy. They took our pipes.

Speaker 1:

I got some trash I need to be investigating.

Speaker 2:

That's hilarious.

Speaker 1:

All right, let's jump into our final two. What do we got? Selfies. It was a bad week for those trying to take selfies.

Speaker 2:

Bad selfie, week Bad selfie.

Speaker 1:

Yeah, fucking, americans are dumb people.

Speaker 2:

Have you heard about these Cam? No, All right.

Speaker 1:

Here's the first one. A man was vetting, vetting, visiting a zoo, apparently trying to make it a petting zoo, that's maybe.

Speaker 2:

Oh yeah, well that makes sense.

Speaker 1:

yeah, the man, uh, identified as manuela bulletin, a 29 year old, climbed over a chain link fence with a cell phone in hand at the kubo island, mangrove and wetland parks in the Philippines. Yeah, and in the video it shows, onlookers could be heard screaming at the man and the crocodile. Now, what happened was, apparently, the gentleman thought the crocodile was fake, yes, so he decided he was going to climb over the chain link fence into the enclosure and get his picture with said crocodile. Now, he had climbed into the enclosure. Uh, apparently people that were working there even told him not to do so. Uh, the video showed that as he got in there, uh, it clamped down on his arm, as he's, you know, he's like hey, look at me, look at me, oh shit, oh shit.

Speaker 1:

Then it did the death roll and they used concrete to try to pry its mouth open. And he had been told by a zookeeper in charge to stop, but he didn't do so and he ended up with over 50 stitches in his arm.

Speaker 4:

He's lucky he still has an arm.

Speaker 3:

Lucky he's alive. Amen, that is like this guy he's lucky he still has an arm.

Speaker 4:

Lucky he's alive.

Speaker 2:

Like this guy. It's not real, no, no, it's real.

Speaker 3:

If there's a chain link around it, it's real and everybody tells you it's real Right there.

Speaker 2:

Yeah, oh, gotcha bitch.

Speaker 1:

Oh my God, this is scary shit, Him's a big feller too. This is what's going to happen to Shook one day with that fucking chimpanzee he goes and visits.

Speaker 2:

It won't happen. No, because I'll take cupcakes, that's how you feed it.

Speaker 1:

That's what this guy needed. He should have fed the crocodile and Mountain Dew or something here's the sad part, this guy, I did read, was mentally disabled, so somebody let him.

Speaker 2:

Yeah, who was letting him in there?

Speaker 1:

No, Right, like somebody should be watching this guy. 50 stitches. Have you ever seen the crocodiles? Oh, oh.

Speaker 2:

Listen, we all stopped watching this video.

Speaker 1:

No, come on now, people. This is why the After Two Beers podcast is amazing.

Speaker 2:

Like, why would you watch His arm's out right there? Go bro Run. No kidding, I told you it's In the bathtub.

Speaker 4:

In another part too.

Speaker 1:

Yeah, no like why would you let him in there? Well, obviously no one let him in, but you would think, stop him.

Speaker 2:

Yeah, look at that fence he'd have to climb over. If that's it right there.

Speaker 3:

Somebody grab that little scrawny. That's a scrawny dude. You can grab him and pull him down, man, I'll tell you what.

Speaker 1:

So there's that one.

Speaker 2:

And then, well, we did it again.

Speaker 1:

He lived. So, yeah, fortunately, yeah, fortunately, and that's the only reason I'm probably sharing this story, especially the video. But come on, all right, here's the next one. A US citizen was impaled on a fence at the Coliseum in Rome. What a colossal prank. This was on last Friday. Jeez, I'm telling you, people are fucking idiots, man. We're just surrounded by boogery morons. They're everywhere. This guy was trying to take a photo of the historic landmark. According to multiple Italian news outlets, the 47-year-old American, who currently resides in Taiwan, slipped while climbing a spiked fence for a better photo op. Yeah, that sounds healthy. He was impaled and stuck and unable to free himself. For around 20 minutes he was reportedly screaming in pain and required a sedative from medics on the scene before he was able to be removed. He lost a lot of blood, was hospitalized, underwent surgery. They said he was questioned by law enforcement on Sunday, but did not immediately provide further details about how the incident occurred. I'm going to guess slip and a gravity.

Speaker 2:

Yeah, it's gravity.

Speaker 3:

I'm dead serious. So my mom was talking about how, like during a field trip at the Wayne County Museum here, that a kid was trying to climb over the fence or whatever and slipped and like you know how like those fences they're like this, that they had to cut it off and he had to go to the emergency room and it went right up in his butt. Oh, oh, ow, she was, they were just like kids at the field trip at the Wayne County Museum here, oh wow.

Speaker 2:

And this guy was up there just trying to take a picture. I mean it's pretty big, big. Why can't you just stand?

Speaker 4:

outside and take a picture I'm right, yeah, don't impale yourself.

Speaker 1:

Well, the? And. So here's what I was. This whole thing is about people's love and desire for the thumbs up. Yeah, and that's what I mean. You're going in to take the picture and I would tell these people nowadays, like shit with ai and powerpoint or, uh, adobe, adobe, power photoshop, you could make that shit look happen.

Speaker 3:

Yeah, like for real put myself in there right now, right AI, and.

Speaker 1:

PowerPoint or Adobe Photoshop, you could make that shit look happen Like for real. I could put myself in there right now, right, and not have to worry about getting impaled.

Speaker 3:

I have a picture of my dog riding a dragon. I've seen it.

Speaker 2:

I've seen a couple of dragons before.

Speaker 1:

What's the dumbest thing that you've tried to take a selfie of and it just did not work. This happened. There's dozens of deaths. I don't know of anything, yeah people falling all the time. Falling, getting too close to the edge of a cliff.

Speaker 3:

People taking selfies while they're in a porta potty and losing their phone in the porta potty.

Speaker 1:

Why would you take a picture in the porta pot?

Speaker 3:

People take pictures of everything anywhere.

Speaker 2:

It's so silly yeah, people do take a lot of stupid pictures.

Speaker 3:

I think we're. We're just, we've gotten older, jason Whitney, we've gotten older, yeah you know, here's my.

Speaker 1:

I don't know we can move off selfies. People are dumb. I would. We should do a whole podcast, or at least a portion a strong portion of the zoo that was at the Glen.

Speaker 3:

Miller oh, I loved it it was so bad. It was bad.

Speaker 1:

It was horrible for these animals they had.

Speaker 3:

If you don't live in the bison had the best of the world though.

Speaker 1:

Well yeah, they had a great area, yeah, so if a lot of our listeners the people that listen to the podcast audio, wise, a vast majority of you are outside of Richmond, indiana. This was around when I was in middle school mostly elementary school this was a local zoo at our local park. We have a great park there and I don't know if this is going to do it justice, but that picture that you're seeing that's an element of our zoo. You could walk up and see this thing for free, yep, and there was a monkey cage where there was just a bunch of small monkeys that chucked feces on the regular. They really did. Yeah, that might be the shit splatter right there. Now, what was interesting? To the left of that cage, there was a small enclosure.

Speaker 3:

I feel like there was a peacock Look at the fucking monkeys.

Speaker 1:

There was a peacock in there, yeah, but there was a tiger, and the tiger that's the cage right there. That's what the tiger was in. And you see that little thing like in the left where it could go in and sleep at night, and I remember as a kid thinking they'd given it a bowling ball to play with. It was just sitting in there with a bowling ball and then, if you go back, there's the monkeys, there's the monkey throwers.

Speaker 1:

Um, if you, if you would go back further into the zoo. They had small cages. I remember seeing a? Um porcupine in there and just cages. I remember seeing a porcupine in there and just remember feeling so sad for this porcupine. Like it was stuck in like, basically like there's the peacock right, Is that the peacock?

Speaker 3:

And we'd feel bad if our dogs were in that small of an area. That's what I'm saying.

Speaker 1:

There's lions. I would hear stories of people that lived uh in grand boulevard, that area, yeah uh, where one of those lions would roar and you would hear it blocks away oh yeah, wow yeah, you're thinking, oh man, I hope the thing isn't loose jason whitney also talked about the psycho metal slide that burned we all had.

Speaker 3:

We all had second degree burns from that metal slide.

Speaker 1:

Well, it's wild. Amanda and I saw one the other day that somebody had obviously taken from a zoo. Maybe they bought it or whatever, but they had it in their backyard and it's like we used to play on weird shit that kids would not be allowed on today. That thing that would just spin around America round.

Speaker 3:

Oh, I watched a kid Just jump right there to play on weird shit that kids would not be allowed on today, that thing that would just spin around.

Speaker 1:

Merry-go-round. Oh, I watched a kid Just jump right there Look at that monkey right there. He's like I can't wait. I'm going to hit number 12 right between the eyes with this doo-doo. Throw my doo-doo.

Speaker 2:

Got him. Oh, there it is there it is. The slide of hell.

Speaker 3:

That thing had so much DNA from all of our skin. Oh man, you ride that thing in.

Speaker 2:

August and you had to get second. Oh, I remember that one too, yeah.

Speaker 3:

So the other thing is that they used to have it at the Mary Scott Park and it was the slide that was rollers, yeah.

Speaker 4:

Yeah.

Speaker 3:

How many people's phalanges got pinched in those bad boys you throw some rocks in there when the people are coming down.

Speaker 4:

We used to go down on our feet.

Speaker 1:

You would go down on your feet and that's the other, like kids, like my joints just hurt, like just jumping out, like I was just talking to Amanda this, we would jump out of the swing.

Speaker 2:

Oh yeah, For no other reason than just to jump out of the swing. I would be so scared to do that now Gosh.

Speaker 4:

I hurt myself scooping ice cream.

Speaker 3:

Right, I'd be in critical care, oh man.

Speaker 1:

Yeah, no, it's funny. All right, I think that's going to wrap it up for us. This week we covered a lot of different things today. Yeah, we did we ran all over the spectrum there. If you get to chat with your friends and neighbors about who you would hang out with on a Experience?

Speaker 3:

Yeah, I would love to know.

Speaker 1:

I would love to know who you would pick and what you would choose to do. It would be really.

Speaker 2:

Can you?

Speaker 1:

imagine if you were a person that really was into music or whatever, but just take somebody to go out and do karaoke with one day?

Speaker 2:

Oh, that'd be great Right. Right, that would be cool as shit.

Speaker 1:

Just shoot hoops one day with you know, pick said name here. Steph Curry, anybody, caitlin Clark, whoever you want to pick, larry.

Speaker 2:

Bird and you can just go out and do it.

Speaker 1:

It's you know. I will say, though, as a person that's been around a fair amount of famous people in my life, the only thing I'm going to caution you on is sometimes you find out your heroes are fucking assholes.

Speaker 2:

Fucking assholes. That's what I hear.

Speaker 1:

It depends on who they are Not so good and, in fairness, you never know what they're going through that day. All right, absolutely.

Speaker 2:

They could be going through some shit yeah.

Speaker 1:

And that's why we like to say that's right, we'll get to that. All right, appreciate it. Thanks again to our buddy, kevin shook, for helping us put this together and, uh again, if this is something you would be, uh, probably be able to do much better than we do, um just reach out to kevin and he could make that happen for you.

Speaker 1:

Thanks again to our patreon sponsors that allow us to continue to show up here. Uh, we're doing a better job trying to be here every other week. Uh, even in the summer we we used to, and now we're going to keep trying to go.

Speaker 4:

We'll have a bonfire, just keep.

Speaker 3:

Kim. Oh man, I'll never live it down. It's hard.

Speaker 1:

I mean, you know what that's. What we should start doing is coming on here every week and telling one silly story about all of it, oh yeah. I've got a half dozen of pudding at State Darts? That would be amazing. That's the best one.

Speaker 2:

I'm glad there's no fucking cameras.

Speaker 1:

Yeah, that's the thing.

Speaker 3:

We're so loving you. We were able to do dumb shit when there wasn't a camera on your phone.

Speaker 1:

That was another story I didn't pass or I passed on. There was a lady that cracked an egg on her daughter's forehead and I think it was in Sweden, don't quote me. On the country. The lady posted it and was mocking the child.

Speaker 3:

She got DCS called on her Well they sued her.

Speaker 1:

They sued her and she had to pay the child $2,000. And it was just some random individual that turned her in. Exploiting your kids cost her two grand. I love it. That's something we need to bring to the states right now. Yeah, then you wouldn't see all them doogers and Harry and Kate or whatever that guy's name was, oh Lord Plus eight Kate plus eight, oh geez. Yeah, I'm going to just use my kids to make money All right.

Speaker 1:

Well, we say it at the end of every show by far the most important thing we talk about, and it's simply this the world's tough. As you hear, we read a lot of stories about people that are having bad ways to go right now. Yeah, but more importantly, there's a lot of people that walk around you all day long that you maybe work with, maybe they're best friends, maybe they're a relative, maybe it's a friend that you haven't talked to in a while. We all go through shit and we all struggle with things, and that was what I was saying. Sometimes, those famous people you meet maybe they just had a bad day, yep and uh, if you have a friend, a family member, a co-worker, someone in your life that you just know, um, just seem like they're off.

Speaker 1:

Maybe they uh, they just aren't the same reach out to them just, and it doesn't have to be, you know, important and in scheduled, or just stop by and go hey man, you doing all right. How's your day? How you been? I have a beer. You'd be surprised how something little like that might be the one thing that gets them going through the next day that's right. That's all you need to do all right, I uh, I guess puddin gibbler. Without further ado, we will talk to them all next time after two beers
