Apple Podcasts Glitch And Housekeeping

SPEAKER_00 0:16

Welcome back, episode fifty-six. Not yet. Okay. Thank you for listening. Uh, we've got a I don't know, some kind of issue with uh Apple Podcast, but it is not dropping our episodes.

SPEAKER_01 0:31

Apple don't like us.

SPEAKER_00 0:32

I don't know what's happening. I did get an email of uh agreeing to new terms and conditions.

SPEAKER_01 0:40

Oh, Jody does not agree to anything.

SPEAKER_00 0:42

I did go through it and agree to it. Oh. But it still did not release any of our last three or four episodes. So I don't know. I'm gonna.

SPEAKER_01 0:51

So catch us everywhere besides Apple.

SPEAKER_00 0:53

Yes. Amazon Music. I never mentioned that, but we're on Amazon Music.

SPEAKER_01 0:57

I never listened to Amazon Music.

SPEAKER_00 0:59

Yeah, I've got I downloaded it simply because we were gonna be on it when we first started this thing.

SPEAKER_01 1:04

And uh I always just say, Alexa, play 80s pop. And she plays.

SPEAKER_00 1:15

When I did listen to the last two episodes, I noticed my voice. If you remember, I did say a man is gonna do most of the talking and here she is, and then you didn't say nothing. I just meant that because I knew my voice wasn't a hundred percent. And that's the only reason I said that.

SPEAKER_01 1:29

When did you say that?

SPEAKER_00 1:30

So it's getting the last time? Yeah.

SPEAKER_01 1:32

Why did you say that?

SPEAKER_00 1:34

Because my voice was not there.

SPEAKER_01 1:36

Because you got chopped on? Yeah. Was this before or after you got chopped?

Warm Spell Ends And Yard Woes

SPEAKER_00 1:40

This was after. So I had a little neck surgery, and so my voice isn't a hundred percent. But yeah, you could definitely tell the difference compared to the other ones. So anyway, but we're going through some warm weather now. But it ended. I'm freezing. Yeah, as of today. So we've had uh a decent week of weather, at least the last two days. We were like right at 70. It was, you know, the sun was shining, all that stuff, and now boom.

SPEAKER_01 2:05

Sunroof day in the car.

SPEAKER_00 2:07

Yeah, I think today's high is 40.

SPEAKER_01 2:09

And I'm freezing.

Killing Weeds And Glyphosate Gamble

SPEAKER_00 2:10

And then it's supposed to be in the twenties tonight and all that. So I had a chance yesterday. We have I used to take pride in my yard. The way our drive is, it kind of slopes down. So we say on top of the hill where our mailbox and all that is. We've got a you know a a big open yard up there. And in the summertime it was always green. I always, you know, if I could cut my grass every day, I would. You know, that type of thing. I just like a good-looking yard. Well, the last few years w like weeds have just like taken over the centipede. And so I've tried, especially last year, I just tried to spray stuff throughout the year that just kills the weeds, and it just was not doing a good job. So anyway, both of our neighbors now, since uh our the Hilton Hotel has completely been built, our neighbor's house, it's huge now. Uh they had pallets of grass brought in, and uh so their yard is gonna be spectacular come this spring, and our other neighbor has the same thing. So are you saying our yard looks like trash. Jealous? Yes, I've not I am not gonna be taken down by and I'm the only one that takes care of the yard. They have they have lawn care services that do theirs. So long. Yeah. So anyway, my my point being is that yesterday wine was still warm, I looked it up. Is it what's it called? Glyphosate? Yeah, glyphosate, it's like f glyphosate 41%, whatever it is, some kind of poison. And you can put it on your yard since the you know your grass is dormant, basically it's dead, it's not gonna absorb this for the most part. But all the everything that's in your yard that's green is uh weeds right now. So you want to kill all that. So I laid it down yesterday. I like sprayed and sprayed.

SPEAKER_01 4:00

So I have with food coloring.

SPEAKER_00 4:01

So in the food covering did not show up. I mean, you have to put a lot of food coloring in the spray bottle for it to because it did not show up at all. I tried the red one time, then when I emptied that I did tried the blue, and then I tried green. Nothing showed up when I sprayed it.

SPEAKER_01 4:17

Maybe it's not supposed to. Yeah. But no, it is supposed to, so you can see where you sprayed. But I told you that food coloring was old.

SPEAKER_00 4:24

Well, it doesn't matter.

SPEAKER_01 4:26

Yeah, that shouldn't matter.

SPEAKER_00 4:26

I mean it changed it, I could tell. It inside the the bottle, inside the sprayer. My point being is that I don't know what kind of damage I may have just done to the yard. I might have killed everything. And then come spring, nothing grows. I don't know. But I'm got to kill these weeds. It is driving me crazy. From what our yard used to be to what it is now, it's terrible. And so, and I have to keep up with the Joneses now. He won't even let me cut the grass. Yeah. So speaking of uh, you know, since I said I had my surgery, we uh we'd been complaining about this, but so I had to go back this past week for just a follow-up to make sure everything's healing well and all that. And we just started talking about because it really it it gripes me, and I know it gripes Amanda, but you know, their parking deck is like as confusing as the hospital that I go to, by the way, is like the most confusionist hospital there is to try and find I doubt that. I don't know. That's just the one we've been to.

SPEAKER_01 5:31

We just don't go to any other one.

SPEAKER_00 5:32

I don't know. We have a hard time in this one.

SPEAKER_01 5:35

I think we did pretty good.

Surgery Follow-Up And Maze-Like Hospital

SPEAKER_00 5:36

So you're telling me all hospitals are built the same way? Yes. It's kind of like this hospital is like we're building this part, and then a few years later they added on in a few, and so it's just hard to explain. Well, I tell you this, I had to go to follow the signs. We actually had uh same hospital had another doctor's appointment right after my surgery for something else. And we even asked when we got there, and somebody tried to tell us we were in the wrong location. We're at the wrong hospital. So we were just getting ready to leave.

SPEAKER_01 6:06

But they did that because that doctor had two um two locations.

SPEAKER_00 6:10

Two locations has an office that and I guess she didn't know that.

SPEAKER_01 6:14

I don't know.

SPEAKER_00 6:14

So on certain days in the morning time, half a day he's at the other office, and the other half he's at the hospital office. So But that's not what we're getting at. What we're getting at is when you go on the parking deck, you're having to pay. You having to pay an arm and a leg. Well I the way I feel. Five dollars, seven dollars? How long we were there a long time.

SPEAKER_01 6:35

Oh, that last time we were there a long time.

SPEAKER_00 6:38

Hours and hours. Yeah. It was seven dollars? Yep. So is it gonna be more than that?

SPEAKER_02 6:42

I don't know.

SPEAKER_00 6:43

We were there for a good eight hours, probably. So if if you're roaming like ten hours, you're there, does it go up to ten dollars?

SPEAKER_01 6:49

Maybe seven. I thought five was probably the cutoff, but then when we put that ticket in and it said seven. And then you get down there and all you do is show them the ticket.

SPEAKER_00 6:58

They don't even know if you put it So you have it's like a little kiosk on every floor. Once before you get out to the parking deck, it's got the kiosk right there that you pay for your parking before you go out. So you have a chance to pay, you know, right there. And if you don't, but when you get in the car and head to the bottom to the exit, they've actually got a an attendant in their little box thing right there that you'd actually pay for it there. But when we go down there, you basically just tell them, hey, we've already paid, and they tell you, have a nice day. So So what if I didn't pay? Yeah, they're not ever gonna know.

SPEAKER_01 7:32

Because there's no marking or anything on that ticket.

SPEAKER_00 7:36

But I just think it's crazy. I mean, I really do not agree with this pay. If you've got an issue or you're coming to their hospital for a service, and then they're gonna say, Well, we're gonna stick it to you while you're here. We're gonna make you pay to park.

SPEAKER_01 7:49

What does that money go to?

SPEAKER_00 7:51

I don't know, yeah. You think it's paid for the parking deck by now?

SPEAKER_01 7:54

Oh. Exactly.

SPEAKER_00 7:56

How much money do you think they make a day off the Exactly? I would like to know that.

Parking Deck Fees And Odd Payment System

SPEAKER_01 8:01

Because every parking place in there is basically it's five dollars a car. Right at least.

SPEAKER_00 8:08

And then you gotta I don't know how many cars, fifty, a hundred cars per level. I don't know. It's a lot. So we anyway, so that day we well, this last time we were there so long, we had two different doctors' appointments and it was like four hours apart in time. So we did not want to pay the five dollars or seven dollars or whatever to park and leave and then come back later for the other one and then have to pay again. So we just hung out at the hospital all day. So in the car. Yeah. This was yeah later on.

SPEAKER_01 8:41

Yeah.

SPEAKER_00 8:42

But we decided we'd get soup some food and we went to the their little cafeteria that was about to which was confusing.

SPEAKER_01 8:48

It's about to close so n that was so confusing.

SPEAKER_00 8:51

It was 9 50 and they were about to close. And then so they had a was it a bistro?

SPEAKER_01 8:58

A bistro. Yeah, and it was it was closed. It was already closed.

SPEAKER_00 9:01

It opened at eleven. So the cafeteria closes at ten and then the bistro opened at eleven.

SPEAKER_01 9:06

Yeah.

SPEAKER_00 9:07

So you had that one hour. It looks to me like, look, can you not just stay open to where there's no gap? There's I mean, there's always Well the cafeteria brings out lunch too.

SPEAKER_01 9:16

Okay.

SPEAKER_00 9:17

They both bring out lunch. Okay.

SPEAKER_01 9:19

But why don't you just stay open and then bring lunch out when you can?

SPEAKER_00 9:23

Right.

SPEAKER_01 9:23

And another little thing.

SPEAKER_00 9:26

But so so we've got the so we just have to get breakfast. We're thinking, well, we'll just wait another hour, but we we don't have and they had just breakfast food. Right. So man, I got like gravy and biscuits, I got eggs and some hash browns, and then like, oh, they got bacon, so I'll get some bacon. And so you decided to get some bacon.

SPEAKER_01 9:43

I got bacon.

SPEAKER_00 9:44

Yeah. So we got up there and we didn't get a drink or anything like that.

SPEAKER_01 9:47

Nope. No, we just were gonna go to the car and eat. Yeah. But then I decided to go to the surgery waiting room and party there.

SPEAKER_00 9:56

Yeah, we this was weird. I mean, it was we just hung out at the hospital. We just found a spot. All the people were waiting to get have surgery and walking by 'em with our our food and go into the little Yeah, but they don't know we're not waiting on somebody.

SPEAKER_01 10:08

They didn't have a clue.

SPEAKER_00 10:09

Well, I mean, it's weird to my mind because we're not supposed to be there really. But they it's not weird to them because they have no idea. We're not supposed to be.

SPEAKER_01 10:16

It's not supposed to be there. It's a waiting room. We were waiting for our next appointment.

SPEAKER_00 10:20

That's in the the other side of the hospital. Well, so. But Oh, the point of this story is so we get up there and when when we get checked out, the lady says$17 and whatever cents. And I was like, Good night. I was like, did she double charge us on something? Because what I'd look at Biscuit and gravy was like$2.69. Yeah, and then my eggs and whatever, I was like four dollars.

SPEAKER_01 10:47

And so what it ended up being was stupid eight dollars and sixty-nine cents for bacon. So I got three six pieces of bacon, three for him and three for me. Six pieces of bacon were eight dollars and sixty-nine cents.

SPEAKER_00 11:08

I would have never got the.

SPEAKER_01 11:09

And the woman said, Oh yeah, bacon's expensive.

Cafeteria Confusion And $8.69 Bacon

SPEAKER_00 11:12

Yeah. I never even really thought to even look to see what the price of bacon was. I was just thinking, you know, it's I was kind of thinking like you're getting a meal. It's almost like a meeting three, you know, or whatever for lunchtime. Yeah. I'm just getting some breakfast stuff and then throwing a thing or two of bacon on there. I'm paying five bucks, maybe six at the most. If I had a drink, it'd be six, something like that. I th I think it was wrong. Yeah.

SPEAKER_01 11:38

I still don't. That was crazy because I thought, oh, we're gonna get out cheap. Wrong was I. I didn't just And then I sat down there when we started eating and I started looking up on Walmart what I could order a whole pack of bacon for. I could get a whole pack of bacon cheaper than what we just paid for six pieces.

SPEAKER_00 11:56

Yeah. So don't give a family pack of bacon.

SPEAKER_01 12:02

Bacon's expensive.

SPEAKER_00 12:03

Well, it might be expensive because you're charging arm and leg for a big thing. Yeah, but you're getting a bulk price at a good price. So it's not expensive for y'all to buy it. That was crazy. I don't know, it didn't seem right. Didn't seem right to me. Yeah, but when you're paying for something that I don't know, it just lessens the experience, and especially when you're hungry and you're like, I paid something this much for something that's not even really gonna fill me up. It was just gonna basically get me by, you know, while we're there because it's so late in the morning and we hadn't eaten. Yeah. But that was crazy.

SPEAKER_01 12:37

Then we go sit in that room for an hour, then we go to the car for three hours. Seemed like it.

SPEAKER_00 12:43

It might not have been quite three hours, but it was crazy.

SPEAKER_01 12:45

It was pretty close. Yeah. It was pretty close.

SPEAKER_00 12:48

But the only thing I can say about the seeing two doctors in one day, actually going for the appointment, we did not have to wait.

SPEAKER_01 12:59

No, we got right in there. I don't know how we did that.

SPEAKER_00 13:01

For both doctors.

SPEAKER_01 13:02

Yeah.

SPEAKER_00 13:03

There was no waiting for 30 minutes, 45 minutes in the waiting room or they're going to the room and then waiting back there. No, it was so for that much it was uh it was a positive. It was pretty good.

SPEAKER_01 13:13

For them to say, Hey, you're good.

SPEAKER_00 13:15

Yeah. Which that's what we wanted to hear.

SPEAKER_01 13:18

All right. What else you got?

SPEAKER_00 13:20

I was uh this is a story I'd read. Oh, Pear's story time with Jody. Yeah, it kind of breaks my heart, but it's a story I I saw months and months ago. It's in 2025, so last year, which wasn't just a few months ago. Um, but you're familiar with the farmer's almanac, correct?

SPEAKER_01 13:39

Yeah.

SPEAKER_00 13:40

What do you think about the farmer's almanac?

SPEAKER_01 13:42

I don't know. My papa used to go buy the farmer's almanac because he's a farmer.

SPEAKER_00 13:46

He would buy one?

unknown 13:47

Mm-hmm. Yeah.

SPEAKER_01 13:48

He would go by.

SPEAKER_00 13:49

He would go buy it. He would go buy it. Yeah, but he'd have to have it, right?

SPEAKER_01 13:53

Oh yeah, they always had to have them.

SPEAKER_00 13:54

Yeah. But have you ever browsed through one or anything? Maybe.

SPEAKER_01 14:00

Not much.

Quick Doctor Visits And Small Wins

SPEAKER_00 14:01

I mean, it's not like it tells you on uh February 29th that there's gonna be three inches of snow. Yeah. It'll just tell you that late February, into March, there's a chance of possible snow flurries. So it's not like pinpointing something. It's almost like obvious stuff, it's kind of telling you, you know? Kinda, or at least from what I've seen. But anyway, it says far uh farmer's almanac to stop publishing after more than two centuries. Wow. So they're shutting it down. The Farmers Almanac, a trusted source for weather prediction and gardening advice for over two centuries, has announced that its 2026 edition will be its last. The main-based publication, first printed in 1818, cited financial challenges in the current media landscape as a result for ceasing publication. Access to the online version will end in December 2025. So if you go online right now, it's over. You can't even get that. So the Farmer's Almanac is renowned for its long-range weather forecasts, which are generated using a secret formula based on sunspots, planetary positions, and lunar cycles. See, I didn't know that. Had no idea. So that's the secret formula, huh? In addition to weather predictions, the almanac was uh it provided readers with gardening tips, trivia, jokes, and national remedies. Uh, editor Sandy Duncan expressed pride in the publication's legacy, stating its spirit and true goal of spreading a way of thinking and uh one that values simplicity, seasonal wisdom, and the amazing gifts from nature will live on for eternity thanks to our fans and readers. The decision to end the publication reflects the increasing financial difficulties of producing and distributing the almanac in today's chaotic media environment. Despite its closure, the farmer's almanac legacy will continue to inspire those who appreciate the wisdom of past generations and the connection to nature. The farmer's almanac is distinct from the old farmer's almanac, which will continue its publication. So you're still gonna have one out there. And I'm not sure now if it was the farmer's almanac or the old farmer's almanac.

SPEAKER_01 16:21

So what's the difference?

SPEAKER_00 16:22

I don't know.

SPEAKER_01 16:23

Now I need to know the difference.

Farmers’ Almanac Shuts Down

SPEAKER_00 16:25

So does the old farmer's almanac are they not having uh trouble in today's chaotic society figuring out how to why is there two? Well, they're apparently different in some aspect. I guess the old farmer's almanac does not use sunspots, planetary positions, and lunar cycles in their secret formula to figure out things.

SPEAKER_01 16:48

Who's over these things?

SPEAKER_00 16:50

Who's over these things? Who writes these? I just told you who the uh sorry the editor was. Sandy Duncan.

SPEAKER_01 16:58

What is he?

SPEAKER_00 16:58

What is he? Mm-hmm. Is that a she?

SPEAKER_01 17:01

Oh, is that a she?

SPEAKER_00 17:03

I'm I'm assuming. I don't know. They just said in this, you know, it's uh j just think about like CDs and albums and all that stuff with you know, the landscape for music is totally different now than it was twenty five years ago. Right. When you would go in a new album or you know, C D was coming out, you go buy it. You know, and listen to it. I couldn't tell you the last time I bought a C D. You know. Do they make CDs? Um I don't think they make them. So how do uh artists make money nowadays?

SPEAKER_01 17:34

Everything's downloaded.

SPEAKER_00 17:35

Yeah, I know. So that's what I'm saying. So you have to see them in con is that where they make ticket sales, like subscriptions or uh paying for downloads, I guess. Is that what you're doing?

SPEAKER_01 17:46

I guess.

SPEAKER_00 17:47

So it's harder as an artist, I'm sure, to make money. If you're not touring. But I don't know. But I just thought uh, you know, something that's been around for two centuries and has gone bye-bye. But to get off that for a second into something totally different is uh I got on this thing, I saw where three people had died in the last like three weeks at Disney World. Did you did you see that?

SPEAKER_01 18:12

I've not seen that, but I thought I seen where a a ride at um what's the thing in uh uh Pigeon Forge? Um Dollywood? No, in the um the island is that where I seen it. I just seen something now that you said that.

SPEAKER_00 18:33

Where the Ferris wheel is?

SPEAKER_01 18:35

Yeah, but that wasn't that wasn't the ride. But I'm trying to think what other kind of ride would have failed like that. Cause it showed the picture. Oh, this is how my mind's getting. It's horrible. I can't remember anything. It showed the picture where the piece um of the ride was down, and I could have sworn it's it was maybe it wasn't the island, but it was Pigeon Forge that where a piece of the ride had broke too.

SPEAKER_00 19:05

So nobody got hurt where people got hurt. Yeah, people got hurt.

CDs, Streaming, And How Artists Get Paid

SPEAKER_01 19:09

That's funny that you say that, because I did see that the other day.

SPEAKER_00 19:13

So I decided to look up what the estimated total deaths at Walt Disney World has been since 1971.

SPEAKER_01 19:22

Everything is that when Disney opened?

SPEAKER_00 19:24

Yeah, it opened in 71, I'm sorry. So between that and uh current day today, it's it's it's conferred, it's sixty-eight confirmed fatalities have con uh happened on their property. Uh let's see, the total is not limited to ride accidents, but includes all deaths reported on or near the property. So we're talking about murder medical emergencies, like natural, you know, like say a heart attack, something like that. Yeah. Drownings, suicides.

SPEAKER_01 19:54

You think these rides give people heart attacks sometimes? I think the stress of walking and the heat and because you know, rides will say if you have heart problems, don't ride it. But then somebody's like, oh, that won't bother me. I mean, and they really might have heart problems, but oh, I take medicine or whatever, you know, like, but then it just throws them for something.

SPEAKER_02 20:16

Yeah.

Disney Deaths: What The Numbers Really Say

SPEAKER_01 20:17

I used to love rides. I don't think I could do them now at all.

SPEAKER_00 20:22

Yeah, I'm out.

SPEAKER_01 20:23

You've never done rides, but me and Nicholas, we've always been I'm not now. I mean, yeah, me it was always me and Nicholas and the things that would go round and round and round, and Jody's like, mm-mm, I'm sending that one out.

SPEAKER_00 20:35

Yeah, I don't want to take a chance and feeling bad afterwards, and then you just feel bad the rest of the day.

SPEAKER_01 20:39

I can't I can't do it anymore.

SPEAKER_00 20:40

But I don't want to be jarred now around.

SPEAKER_01 20:42

Oh, yeah, totally now.

SPEAKER_00 20:44

Roller coaster, all that kind of stuff. I I'm not dealing with it. Yeah. There's notable uh fatal incidents that have happened in Florida at Walt Disney World.

SPEAKER_01 20:53

So Florida's Disney World and California's Disneyland.

SPEAKER_00 20:58

Correct. So in 1977, four-year-old boy drowned in a moat near Cinderella Castle. These are just some that made happen.

SPEAKER_01 21:06

Just happenstance, not uh not a ride that went down.

SPEAKER_00 21:10

Well, I mean, it could be. I'm just saying these are just some sporadic ones that made the news. This is not a list of every almost 70 people. That's not uh 1980, 11-year-old boy died after swimming at River Country Water Park. 82, multiple deaths, including young children from drowning and other accidents. Why are we drowning? 1987, six-year-old boy drowned in the resort pool. 1989, boy drowned at River Country.

SPEAKER_01 21:41

Why are we drowning?

SPEAKER_00 21:43

Well, I mean, this is happening. Early nineteen nineties, instances instances such as a shooting suicide at Epcot and uh drownings from river country. So there was some more drowning.

SPEAKER_01 21:55

So go back and are there any deaths from rides? At Disney.

SPEAKER_00 22:01

I haven't got there yet.

SPEAKER_01 22:02

Okay. Is that where we're going?

SPEAKER_00 22:04

Yes.

SPEAKER_01 22:04

Okay.

SPEAKER_00 22:05

Kinda. Okay. From what I'd pre-read.

SPEAKER_01 22:07

Because that's what I always think. You don't think of drownings. I'm thinking of rides.

SPEAKER_00 22:12

2004, cast member playing Pluto in a parade was ran over and killed by a float.

SPEAKER_01 22:18

Disney does not publicly maintain a comprehensive list, numbers, or details uh compiled from incident reports, media, and medical reports. There you go. But they might not have had any from the rides, but you know, they did say one of the like train operator type died from an accident, and then the person playing Pluto, you know, fell and ran over by a float, that type of stuff. So That's crazy. That is.
